The 10th Annual BCLT Privacy Lecture will be presented by Christine L. Borgman, Distinguished Professor and Presidential Chair in Information Studies at UCLA and Director of the UCLA Center for Knowledge Infrastructures. Prof. Borgman will explore the clash between two trends. One is for academic researchers to provide open access to their data in connection with grants and publications; the other is for universities to accumulate vast amounts of data about the activities of their communities.
Borgman is the author of more than 250 publications in information studies, computer science, and communication. Her most recent book is Big Data, Little Data, No Data: Scholarship in the Networked World (MIT, 2015).
Description
Networks powered by algorithms are eating everything. Many of the contemporary technology trends with the greatest significance for the economy and for public policy—Internet of Things, Big Data, Platform Economy, Blockchain, and Algorithmic Society—should be seen as manifestations of this larger phenomenon. After the Digital Tornado, a major academic conference hosted by Professor Kevin Werbach and the Wharton School, will consider the deep questions the algorithmic networked world poses for freedom, innovation, fairness, and human agency.
Registration is free, but space is limited.

Nowadays, all countries seem to be seeking one pressing issue and that is heritage maintenance, especially in Architecture and Urban design. Organizations and Universities play a vital role in saving or rather conserving old cities through Conferences. Therefore, a conference on “Cities’ Identity Through Architecture & Arts” will be held in 2018. In this conference, examples, and tendencies dealing with urban identities as well as the transformation of cities that shape the current art scene in different places of the world will be discussed. This type of architectural art continuously renews itself -from new materials to different means of communication, from new approaches to perceptional paradigms and nature in the millennium, from new subjects to manifestations. Contemporary art continues to be produced in various directions, consumed and put forward into ideas.
This conference will present how citizens see their cities and how they physically or mentally compare it with the ideal city in their own perceptions.
However, a city’s identity presents distinguishing factors that make it unique and unlike any other.
IEREK aims to dedicate the investigation of the different and new approaches developed in Architecture and Contemporary arts.
IEREK aims to focus on the basis of urban life and identities as well as investigate the different approaches developed in Architecture and Contemporary arts.

The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the Department of Education (“ED”) will host a workshop on December 1, 2017 to examine student privacy and Ed Tech.
The use of “Ed Tech” has exploded over the past several years. More than half of K-12 students have access to a school-issued personal computing device, and in many school districts, online curriculum is becoming the norm. While these technologies have tremendous potential, this transformation in Ed Tech has raised questions about how the Rule implementing the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA Rule”) applies in the school context, and how it intersects with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”). The workshop is intended to gather information to help clarify how the FTC and ED can ensure that student privacy is properly protected without interfering with the promise of Ed Tech.
To aid our analysis of these issues, the FTC and ED seek input. Topics of interest include the following:
- Are the joint requirements of FERPA and COPPA sufficiently understood when Ed Tech providers collect personal information from students?
- Under what circumstances is it appropriate for a school to provide consent under COPPA and what is the process for properly obtaining the consent?
- How should requirements concerning notice, deletion, and retention of records be handled and by whom and when?
- COPPA and FERPA both limit the use of personal information collected from students by Ed Tech vendors. What are the appropriate limits on the use of this data?
- How do schools maintain “direct control” over Ed Tech providers when they rely on the School Official Exception to FERPA’s general consent requirement?
You can find a full list of questions and information about how to submit comments in the detailed public notice about the workshop. The deadline for submitting comments is November 17, 2017.
The workshop, which is free and open to the public, will be at the Constitution Center, 400 7th St., SW, Washington, DC. It will be webcast live on the FTC’s website. An agenda, directions to the Constitution Center building, and a list of speakers will be available in the near future on this event webpage.
