    In this episode of Trending in Education, Mike Palmer interviews Dr. Lindsay Weinberg, a professor at Purdue University and author of Smart University: Student Surveillance in the Digital Age. We discuss Lindsay’s professional journey and the origins of her book, which critically examines the emergence of surveillance technologies in higher education. The conversation highlights issues of data privacy, discrimination, and the implications of these technologies on faculty and student rights. Dr. Weinberg advocates for democratized decision-making in adopting educational technologies and encourages collective resistance to harmful tech practices. The episode closes with insights into the future of higher education and the importance of preparing leaders who can navigate these challenges.
