Schools criticized for live-streaming students

A number of schools across China have come under the spotlight for live-streaming during school hours.

The videos are available for anyone to watch on live-streaming site "Shuidi." 

A student at one of the schools in question argues the move is a violation of their privacy. 

However, some parents reportedly said they supported the live-streaming services, as it will allow them to keep tabs on their children at school. But others say they're concerned about the videos being made available to the general public.

What is the reasoning behind the live-streaming of the students? What is this for? – the parents? Teachers? For school records? 


Speakers: Li Ningjing, Sam Duckett and Lu Sirui
