So is this an example of overbearing digital surveillance, or is it a good idea to protect students from harm? "Chicago officials and some educators say that many school conflicts begin or escalate on social media, and they're hoping to help students.... A Canada-based company the district hired started scouring public posts for threats and 'cries for help' last month. District leaders say the program is key in efforts to prevent violence and self-harm." Personally, I don't have a problem with it provided the program doesn't extend to policing student behaviour on social media. Originally published by Chalkbeat.
