[quote=Anonymous]Here's how the teacher can solve the problem?

Post student work, but do not grade it first. Have the students "peer-grade". Peer-grading does NOT violate FERPA.

from http://www2.ed.gov/policy/gen/guid/fpco/pdf/ht12-17-08-att.pdf
"Even though peer-grading results in students finding out each other’s grades, the U.S. Supreme Court in 2002 issued a narrow holding in Owasso that this practice does not violate FERPA because grades on students’ papers are not “maintained” under the definition of “education records” and, therefore, would not be covered under FERPA at least
until the teacher has collected and recorded them in the teacher’s grade book, a decision consistent with the Department’s longstanding position on peer-grading."

Thus, students get the practice and educational benefit of seeing each other's work without any legal violations. Is there a possibility that Larlo will still be embarrassed by his spelling errors? Of course. But maybe he will see that other kids make mistakes, too.[/quote]
