126 SXSWedu 2016 9:30 AM - 10:30 AM Learning Spaces No Barriers: Models for Making in Your Community Hilton | Room 400-402 | Panel The maker movement promises to provide several unique access points for STEM learning and creative expression for our commu- nities. Making provides a rich foundation for inventive, iterative play; key ingredients to innovative thinking and 21st century skills. However, without significant planning, capital and a dedicated space, many communities' ideas for makerspaces tend to fizzle out. In this session we will look at different approaches to making and makerspaces, addressing some of the barriers of entry for begin- ning a community makerspace and demonstrate a framework that will help community leaders and educators start making with their communities, no matter what their current resources.

Now let's act!" This panel will focus on the nuts and bolts of creating a comprehensive privacy program. For schools and districts looking to comply with Fair Information Practices, FERPA, COPPA, PPRA and new state laws, while writing strong contracts and meeting parental expectations—the challenge is one of focus and expertise. This panel will provide an intense in- formation-packed 'boot camp' style experience to give participants practical tools, tips, tactics and the basic knowledge base to build, implement and execute a student data privacy program.
