Who is Reading Whom Now: Privacy in Education from Books to MOOCs Jules Polonetsky* Omer Tene** ABSTRACT The arrival of new technologies in schools and classrooms around the nation has been met with a mixture of enthusiasm and anxiety.

At the same time, the combination of enhanced data collection with highly sensitive information about children and teens presents grave privacy risks. Indeed, in a recent report, the White House identified privacy in education as a flashpoint for big data policy concerns.
