[Year 12 IT Apps] Security for SACS

Sat Mar 28 02:13:19 EST 2009

at our school... all teachers have the rights to open and close assignments... the Technicians create the form/class groups at the start of the term and there is a 10 min PD on this and then it is left up to teachers to do the rest... the access is different for the different levels in the school...

hope this helps

cheers

We have just started something similar here. The techies didn't want to have to turn on and off the SAC times and won't give us teachers the privilege of doing it ourselves. So a multiuser login was created with very limited access to the network and no Internet access, etc. They are only able to save work to a USB flash device which they are given each lesson. The devices are numbered so the same student gets his/her one each lesson. They are kept in a plastic sleeve with their paperwork. It is working very well so far. One of the USB devices fell apart in the first lesson, so he got a new one (it's good to have a few spares). The only drawback is that they are not able to do a backup. Hmm. Perhaps they could be given write access to a special backup folder.

We have a system where the students are given a SAC login and password that only works in the room that they have their SAC's in. This can be enabled and disabled on a lesson by lesson basis  which creates a different home drive for them that is inaccessible outside of SAC times. The login is set up in such a way that they only have access to the local PC and the products that they need for completing the SAC and the rest of the College network is unaccessible. The SAC's are distributed on USB, which are collected at the end of each (77min) lesson, but the students are told that they MUST save their work to the network drive too. Teaches good data recovery/redundancy techniques.

Hey all,

Just wondering of the procedures used when saving files during SACS - would really like to organize a special area where students can only access the documents during SACS time but not sure the best way to go about it.  At the moment files are saved in the student network which means they can be accessed out with the SAC times.  Is anyone out there already doing something similar and if so can I have some suggestions please!

Claire
