The project aims to raise data fragility awareness to representatives, teachers, and students to promote data treatment good practices. The objectives of the project are: 1.- Help schools understand the implications of data-driven decision-making in cloud-based educational environments. 1.1.- Expose to schools which problems about data fragility are related to current educational technology and data academic management. 1.2.- Raise awareness of data fragility issues such as data leaks, misuse, and unauthorized transfers. 1.3.- Train teachers and conduct workshops for school representatives, educators, and students on digital privacy and security. 2.- Provide tools and resources to protect the privacy, security, and confidentiality of students’ data. 2.1- Collect and publicly share good practices on students' data academic management.
We applied to address the urgent need to protect student data in an increasingly digital education system. As schools adopt cloud-based technologies, we saw the necessity to raise awareness and provide guidance on data fragility, privacy, and security, especially in primary and secondary education. We aimed to raise awareness, share good practices, and develop tools to improve data literacy, privacy, and secure data management in schools. We addressed the need to understand and manage the risks of using cloud-based EdTech, including privacy breaches, data misuse, and loss of control over student data by: raising awareness of data fragility among all educational stakeholders; equipping schools with tools to manage student data responsibly; enhancing digital and data literacy of teachers and school leaders; promoting safe, ethical, and legal data practices; supporting GDPR compliance.
