[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My students completed the screener this past week. I’m not sure how valid the results will be. Much of it was above their heads, so I think many just clicked through some of the questions. A lot of hands were raised to ask for words like “race”, “ethnicity”, and “frequently” to be defined. They didn’t know how to answer some of the questions. For example, when asked something like, “How often were you able to disagree with another person without it becoming a major argument”, they didn’t know if they should answer “Never” or “Always”. As an adult I know what the question is asking, but to the students, if they never get into an argument their answer is “Never”. [/quote]

Aaaand this information goes into the hands of a politically partisan private company connected to one of the worst social media companies out there, facebook, to be held for eternity under your kids first and last name and school, with no FOIA oversight or accountability, and under the FERPA protections which are supposed to only be allowed for specific people within your local school system.

This contract is a tremendous violation of student privacy and rights.

The students are too young to consent to this data mining of their intimate personal opinions, and have no way to retract or purge this information.  They have no recourse against this company.

This is wrong.
