Should facial recognition be used in schools? If so, why? If not, what limits should be placed on its use?
I don’t think facial recognition should be used in school because that’s doing a lot plus its time consuming.
2. Have you ever used any kind of facial recognition technology — say, to verify your identity at the airport, unlock your smartphone, sort and tag photos online, or anything else?
Yes, I used facial recognition for the iphone.
3.What are some of the potential benefits of schools using facial recognition technology? Robert LiPuma, the Lockport City School District’s director of technology, believes that if the technology had been in place, the school shooting in Parkland, Fla., may never have happened. Do you agree?S
Some benefits from using the facial recognition is schools is actually knowing that that student attends the school and no intruders are trying to get in. I agree with Robet LiPuma.
4. What are the potential dangers of facial recognition in schools? Jim Shultz, a parent, argues that the Lockport City School District’s decision to use facial recognition has “turned our kids into lab rats in a high-tech experiment in privacy invasion.” How persuasive are his arguments against the district’s decision?
Some potential dangers of the facial recognition is the technology malfunctions and they let the wrong students in or keep the right students from coming in. I don’t think his argument is really persuasive.
5. Studies have shown that some of the most popular surveillance systems exhibited bias, falsely identifying African-American and Asian faces 10 to 100 times more than Caucasian faces and exhibiting a higher rate of mistaken matches among children. How worried should we be about bias and what Jason Nance calls the unintended consequences of facial recognition in schools?
I think we should be worried.
6. How safe do you feel in your school? What safety procedures are currently in place?
I don’t feel extremely safe at school. We have lockdown, shelter in place, tornado drills and fire drills.
7. “We all want to keep our children safe in school, but there are more effective, proven ways to do so that are less costly.” School districts could, for instance, take smaller steps like upgrading entrances and exits, hiring school resource officers, and investing in counselors and social workers.
Do you agree? If yes, what safety alternatives would you propose for your school?
I agree and i would propose we could hire school resource officers, we only have one.
8. Finally, would you recommend that your school use facial recognition technology? If it were used in your school, do you think you would feel safer? Why or why not?
No, I wouldn’t feel safe because its a possibility it can malfunction.

1. Your Opinion
— Should teenagers legally be allowed to get tattoos and piercings? Yes
— Who should decide whether you get a tattoo or piercing — you or your parents? Me
— If you decide to get a tattoo or piercing, what should you take into consideration before doing so? You should take into consideration, what job you want in the future.
2. Here is the deal. I do not care what your opinion is but I want you to be able to explain why you have that opinion.
Let’s give it a go here by first, telling me your opinion and then EXPLAIN why it is your opinion
In my opinion parents should handle a bad report card with punishments, like taking away their game or phone until they get a good grade. This is my opinion because hopefully with taking away the distractions would make them focus more on their school work.
In my opinion I think stores should be able to sell violent video games to minors because it should be the parent job to stop their kids from purchasing things like that. The stores are trying to make money, so if the limit what they can sell that is stopping their profit.
Yes, I want to live to 100 because I want to be able to experience as much as i can before I die.
I oppose the death penalty because later on their could be evidence to prove their innocence but its too late because their dead.
My favorite place is my room because its cozy and literally have everything I like in there.
Yes, money can buy me happiness because when i spend the money on the things I like, It makes me happy.
I think the food/snacks and drinks is special bout my hometown because if you go out of town you won’t find Everfresh Juices and Faygo Pops at the gas station.
In my opinion your test scores don’t reflect on how good your teachers are because the students may have not been paying attention and failed on their own.
