Description
Using an Edtech tool for an educational or administrative purposes within an institution, such as uploading an assignment clearly is processing of the student data but is often covered by the contract with the institution as its part of what they do. However, sometimes these tools have advertising related tracking built into them and share personal data with 3rd parties as part of their business model with little or no option for a student to be able to use the system and not be tracked.
Educationalists sometimes use these tools for interactive or collaborative activities without really understanding that they are forcing their students to hand over personal data and succumb to tracking, to take part in the class.
This first part of this session looks at a sample of these tools – examining what type of tracking is happening, the level of transparency in processing and what level of consent is being asked from students and teachers.
Then the attendees are requested to collaborative increase the analysis using simple web based tools to build a repository or the reports on different ed tech tools
