Although sometimes constraints make it impossible to choose a perfect setting, it is important to, where possible, consider privacy. Privacy is one of the keys to good communication, as the client is likely to be disclosing information of a confidential and sensitive nature (Argyle 1998).

Education Act 1996 places a legal duty on the parent or guardian of a child aged five to sixteen years (known as compulsory school age), to ensure that their children or child attends and receives full-time education, either in a traditional school or any other means that is appropriate for their age, ability, and aptitude, taking into account any special needs they may have. The Act makes it a criminal offense for a parent or guardian to take their child out of school without authorisation from the school, and an offense for parents who are aware that their child is failing to attend school to not take reasonable action to ensure that the child attends. The offense of failing to ensure regular attendance at school is punishable by up to three months’ imprisonment and/or fine up to one thousand pounds.

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), brain child of President Johnson, was passed in 1965. ESEA was intended to mitigate disparities in access to quality academic services and learning outcomes endured by underprivileged and minority students by federally funding schools serving their communities. ESEA, later revised as No Child Left Behind, was to be one element in a larger reform agenda focused on urban redevelopment, vocational training and “EDUCATION AND HEALTH” (Thomas & Brady, 2005). In his 1965 State of the Union, Johnson proclaimed, “No longer will we tolerate widespread involuntary idleness, unnecessary human hardship and misery, the impoverishment of whole areas… ” Nevertheless, this intractable problem remains, as illustrated by recent National Assessment of Educational Progress findings:

For example, through utilizing the internet to search for information, smartphones to connect with our family and friends through applications such as Facebook or Instagram are ways in which people communicate. These advances have prevailed due to the interest and those who use this technology, people are always wondering what others are doing and also like to disclose what is going on in their life. However, oversharing can cause harm in some ways when it is invading someone’s privacy. Confidentiality is a right that should be safeguarded especially in the

As documented in the book “The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks” written by Rebecca Skloot, Henrietta lived her childhood in the segregated rural south. There was no real inspiration for her to attend school, much less develop a strong interest in getting a formal education. Segregation contributed to a cycle of oppression and poverty that affected Henrietta’s knowledge, and quality of life. The unfair early education laws, impaired all black children’s potential to learn, and negatively affected their confidence. America has laws that intend on producing, equal education for all children regardless of economic circumstances, race, religion, or academic ability level. On the other hand, a studied by the Civil Rights Project at Harvard University, find that “public school, especially in the south, is becoming re-segregated at a surprising level.”(Hancock Jones) Today there is evidence that suggest public education still needs equal protection reform in order to give all children a high quality education.

This can result in severe consequences for both the students and the school. Colleges such as Harvard have been denying the entrance of students due to inappropriate and explicit content posted on social media. Many high schools have begun hiring outside companies to monitor their student’s posts. The question arises: By doing so, are they violating these students First Amendment Rights? Approximately 92 percent of teenagers say they use their electronic devices daily (Ray Bendici, “Schools Step up Social Media Monitoring”). Twenty-four percent of which say they constantly use the internet. Although schools have a good intention for monitoring student’s accounts; to stop bullying, to find racist and explicit content, and to stop any threats; some schools go so far that they are violating both their student's privacy and First Amendment

“Some Parents may think that trust is one thing but surrendering parental responsibility to a machine that allows the entire world access

Naturally it raises the need of protecting information from unauthorized access, theft, destruction, and other crimes. However, many users do not realize that they risk their security and privacy online.

Wendy has a very simple job. Her job is to greet new clients and ask them to write their name on a clipboard. On her first day a new client came in and began to talk to her. After a couple of minutes of talking to him, Wendy learned that he has two kids and has lived in town for all his life. She also learned his phone password, banking information, social security number, and favorite daytime pleasure. Either Wendy is incredibly charismatic or this new client is much too trusting with his sensitive information. As unreal as it may sound, this situation where someone gives too much of their personal information to Wendy happens everyday. But Wendy is actually a smartphone and the overly trusting new client is the proud owner of her. Trust is a sacred and integral part of humanity. Offering unadulterated trust to someone or something upon first encounter is undeniably foolish, yet it is all too common for people to give their absolute trust to technology at their first chance. It has become commonplace to overly trust technology to give us an opinion, have our private information, and be our memory. By trusting technology with these three important parts of our humanity we force dependency upon ourselves. We then, are no longer in control of our own lives but are at the mercy of technology. This will unfortunately be our downfall.
