Guiding questions for educators regarding Privacy and Data Governance of AI in Education

"Are there mechanisms to ensure that sensitive data is kept anonymous? Are there procedures in place to limit access to the data only to those who need it? - Is access to learner data protected and stored in a secure location and used only for the purposes for which the data was collected? - Is there a mechanism to allow teachers and school leaders to flag issues related to privacy or data protection? - Are learners and teachers informed about what happens with their data, how it is used and for what purposes? - Is it possible to customise the privacy and data settings? - Does the AI system comply with General Data Protection Regulation?” (European Commission, 2022, p. 21)

Cases Using student dashboards to guide learners through their learning Managing student enrolment and resource planning Using chatbots to guide learners and parents through administrative tasks

Overarching Principles Beneficence Respect for persons

Principles Minimise risks of harms Autonomy Privacy and data governance
