Privacy-Preserving Synthetic Educational Data Generation

7 Jul 2022  ·  Jill-Jênn Vie, Tomas Rigaux, Sein Minn ·

Institutions collect massive learning traces but they may not disclose it for privacy issues. Synthetic data generation opens new opportunities for research in education. In this paper we present a generative model for educational data that can preserve the privacy of participants, and an evaluation framework for comparing synthetic data generators. We show how naive pseudonymization can lead to re-identification threats and suggest techniques to guarantee privacy. We evaluate our method on existing massive educational open datasets.
