For Registrars :: Managing FERPA in the Online Classroom
 
 
  • Students and instructors *within a particular course* may see each other's pictures, names and email addresses. Just as a FERPA block would not stop one student from seeing, communicating with or knowing the name of another student in a physical classroom, a FERPA block should not block the ability of a student seeing another student's, name or email address in an electronic classroom.
  • Class lists consisting of names, pictures and email addresses are likewise restricted to instructors and class enrollees. 
  • Registrars are urged to communicate with faculty so that they will inform students using such tools that their information will be visible to other students in the class and that information that a student obtains from such tools must not be shared outside of the class.
