Conor Williams: Shut Down Student Data and Shut Out Lights on Ed Woes | The 74

Conor Williams: Shut Down Student Data and Shut Out Lights on Ed Woes | The 74: According to the Data Quality Campaign’s Rachel Anderson, “The biggest thing that this bill would do would be to keep states from using student-level data in their own data systems … to do most of the things that they do now, like early warning systems, high school feedback reports showing how graduates do after high school, and so on.”

Conor Williams: Shut Down Student Data and Shut Out Lights on Ed Woes | The 74

Conor Williams: Shut Down Student Data and Shut Out Lights on Ed Woes | The 74:



Vitter’s bill would make these changes in the name of privacy, but the bill is so broad that it would make it much harder for states to efficiently maintain basic oversight of their education systems. Instead of providing targeted changes to meaningfully protect children’s personal information, it provides vague, blanket prohibitions that would stymie the collection of basic student achievement data by educators who need it to evaluate their own work.

Risk management IRM defintion

Risk management: "IRM defines risk as "The combination of the probability of an event and its consequence. Consequences can range from positive to negative." All organisations have objectives at strategic, tactical and operational levels - anything that makes achieving these objectives uncertain is a risk. As our world becomes increasingly volatile and unpredictable, we must cope with greater uncertainty.
