## Resource

In this episode of Deep Learning Dialogues , we sit down with Patricia Kosseim, Ontario’s Information and Privacy Commissioner, to explore the critical intersection of student privacy, educational technology, and artificial intelligence. From the challenges school boards face when negotiating with EdTech vendors to the ethical complexities of AI in classrooms, Commissioner Kosseim offers expert insights and practical guidance for educators. We discuss the importance of “privacy empathy,” the role of the IPC in safeguarding student data, and the resources available to help schools navigate this evolving digital landscape with confidence and care.
