Headstart Online Resilience Podcast Louisa Street

In this episode Andy and I chat with Jen Persson from Defend Digital Me about all things Data Privacy. We cover everything from the data that schools collect about students, to the ways they do it and the mysterious process of developing the technology that is used in schools to scan children's finger prints, blood vessels and faces.

Andy and Jen mention the case of Robbins v Lower Merrion School District, in which schools accessed the webcams of their students outside of school hours to monitor their behaviour. You can read more about that here.



Jen also mentions Pippa King, if you want to know more about her work, you can watch her TedX Talk here.



I also mention my website, Packshare, which you can find here.

In this episode we interview another Street - this time a relation - my amazing sister Maddy Street, who works for Prevent and developed some educational resources about tackling misogyny. Maddy shares her experience of talking to young people about the subject, including the highs and lows, along with some great advice for anyone thinking of broaching the subject with groups of young people.



Maddy mentions a few places you can find great resources to discuss misogyny in the classroom, these are:



Votes for Schools - in particular this blog

Facing history and ourselves

ADL (anti-defamation league)
