FERPA and Free LTIs

[rebecca_pang]

We are able to sign a FERPA agreement for fee-based LTIs but need help on how to approach the FERPA issue with the free LTIs requiring a public level setting in Canvas. Does anyone have a recommendation?

Thanks for your help,

Rebecca

This is a huge challenge; our department that owns and runs Canvas is separate from IT Services so we now have a process where we run any apps through them and legal. We have a list of commonly used approved apps that have been reviewed but everything else it's on the instructor/department to initiate the review process.

FAQ - Canvas - Faculty - CDLI Help Center - Seattle University  

We also have an accessibility review in partnership with our disability services folks. 

I hope this helps, 

John
