Digital Footprint Assignment

1. How might your digital footprint affect your future opportunities? Give two examples.

for example. If I say something bad on the internet, in my future, the things that I said/posted can affect my life in some way like getting a job or a driver’s license.

another example of it is texting other people, the information stays on the chat log forever and if you click delete message, it’ll still be there. Either on a person’s side or the governments

2. Describe at least three strategies that you can use to keep your digital footprint appropriate and safe.

  1. don’t click random websites.
  2. only search for the topics you need to.
  3. don’t post or say mean/inappropriate phrases online.

3. If you could go back in time, is there anything that you would do differently online? Think of what advice you would pass on to your younger self or other students.

I would tell myself that you should start being more active online than passive like drawing, creating things, and having fun.
