The UETN coordinates and supports the telecommunications needs of public and higher education, public libraries, and entities affiliated with the state systems of public and higher education as approved by the Utah Education and Telehealth Network Board, including the statewide development and implementation of a <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/le.utah.gov\/xcode\/Title53B\/Chapter17\/53B-17-S105.html?v=C53B-17-S105_2014040320140513\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">network for education<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which utilizes satellite, microwave, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">fiber-optic, broadcast, and other transmission media.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the 1990s, the state appropriated $20 million to connect schools to the UEN. It now serves about 98% of schools in the state. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> A key factor in the UEN\u2019s design was leveraging resources within the network&#8211; for example, allowing secondary school students to use the university system\u2019s distance learning programs to earn dual credit. A second important component of UEN\u2019s success is its leveraging of private investments with public funds with competitive bidding with service providers. The network infrastructure is owned by the service providers and leased by the UEN consortium for schools and libraries. Through its competitive bidding process, Utah has leveraged the construction of a world class network; this is an incentive for service providers to participate in the UEN because the robust infrastructure gives them a competitive marketing edge with private customers. Finally, schools purchasing the discounted network services go through the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.uen.org\/ueninfo\/downloads\/booklet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">UEN<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (which handles the Federal E-Rate program state-wide), saving educational administrators valuable time from bureaucratic processes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Florida<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Florida\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flsenate.gov\/Session\/Bill\/2014\/5101\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">passed legislation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in 2014 that:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Requires that the legislature annually appropriate funds to implement the Florida digital classrooms plan; and <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Requires each district to adopt a district digital classrooms plan to include measurable student performance outcomes; digital learning and technology infrastructure purchases and operational activities including connectivity, broadband access, wireless capacity, Internet speed, and data security; professional development purchases to improve digital literacy and competency; and online assessment-related purchases and operational activities.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Data Systems<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Next-generation accountability requires robust data systems capable of supporting competency-based pathways and personalized learning. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Information technology systems that chart each student\u2019s learner profile with levels of proficiency attainment, connected to portfolios of student work, and capture meaningful assessment down to the level of the academic standard help manage data to foster student-centered learning. It is important for educators to be able to monitor and report on proficiency level at each step of the way on student progress. Likewise, information technology and integrated learning systems must be student-centric to allow ease of use for educators, students and parents alike. Data needs to be protected and secure. This requires the design and architecture of information systems to support transparency of student progression through identified sets of competencies with evidence and access to the data-driven instructional tools educators need for next generation learning. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Student Data Privacy and Security<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Within the proper safeguards, data-driven instruction is key for educators to personalize learning. It is critical to enact balanced policies that provide good governance practices to ensure proper protection and use of personally identifiable student data, while at same time enabling new learning models and modalities to personalize learning and close achievement gaps. Policymakers should take care not to stifle innovation through prohibitive policies on student data, which can result in unintended consequences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">California\u2019s <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/leginfo.legislature.ca.gov\/faces\/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201320140SB1177\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SB 1177<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from 2014 does the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prohibits an operator of an Internet website, online service, online application, or mobile application from knowingly engaging in targeted advertising to students or their parents or legal guardians, using covered information to amass a profile about a K\u201312 student, selling a student\u2019s information, or disclosing covered information, as provided.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Requires an operator to implement and maintain reasonable security procedures and practices appropriate to the nature of the covered information, to protect the information from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure, and to delete a student\u2019s covered information if the school or district requests deletion of data under the control of the school or district.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does not limit the ability of an operator to use student data, including covered information, for adaptive learning or customized student learning purposes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shall not be construed to prohibit an operator of an Internet Website, online service, online application, or mobile application from marketing educational products directly to parents so long as the marketing did not result from the use of covered information obtained by the operator through the provision of services covered under this section from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification, or disclosure, and to delete a student\u2019s covered information if the school or district requests deletion of data under the control of the school or district.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Does not limit the ability of an operator to use student data, including covered information, for adaptive learning or customized student learning purposes.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shall not be construed to prohibit an operator of an Internet Website, online service, online application, or mobile application from marketing educational products directly to parents so long as the marketing did not result from the use of covered information obtained by the operator through the provision of services covered under this section.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Open Educational Resources<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open educational resources (OER) are learning materials licensed to freely permit educators to share, access, and collaborate to customize and personalize content and instruction. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.inacol.org\/resource\/oer-state-policy-in-k-12-education-benefits-strategies-and-recommendations-for-open-access-open-sharing\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OER promote student-centered and personalized learning<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> materials that help maximize state and district education budgets because they are meant to be used and reused without the licensing or royalty fees typically found in traditional instructional materials. \u00a0Additionally, OER can help a state educational system use its resources wisely and efficiently.
