Dragana Martinovic, Victor Ralevich (2007) Privacy issues in educational systems Int. J. Internet Technology and Secured Transactions 1: 1/2. 132-150 Abstract: Here we consider personal data collection and storage, access
control, data mining, and related privacy protection in two different scenarios:
online tutoring systems and school-based educational systems. When applying
intelligent agents to create an accurate student profile intended to facilitate
personalised content delivery, we argue that information collected by an agent
needs to be stripped of sensitive personal data. In case of more traditional
educational environments within which students’ data are collected for variety
of administrative purposes, the only way to protect sensitive information is to
combine technical security procedures with the existing legal restrictions and
policies put in place.
