Edtech Services and Student Monitoring
EdSurge investigated the companies used by schools to monitor students, following discussions with teens advocating against the negative aspects of AI.
Last year, journalism students at Lawrence High School in Kansas successfully lobbied their district to exempt them from digital monitoring.
- The district had paid over $162,000 for a contract with Gaggle.
- The goal was to improve student mental health and crisis management.
The district hoped that Gaggle's digital monitoring service would help amidst rising school shootings and teen mental health crises.
However, after "heated discussions" with the journalism students, the district agreed to exempt them from monitoring, citing First Amendment rights.
