A digital footprint is basically everything you have done on social media or on the internet. A negative digital footprint consists of posting bad things about other people on social media platforms ( instagram, tik tok, twitter) or hating on them, posting racist stuff on social media and commenting on other peoples posts and hating on them or saying bad stuff . A negative digital footprint can also include reposting bad tik toks or retweeting bad twitter posts. A high school experience could be ruined by your negative digital footprint because people could make fun of you from the stuff you post around the internet or call you names. If you post negatively about other people on your public account people could call you a gossiper and make fun of you instead of making fun of the other person you were talking negatively about.

Google and a calculator is also another positive because you can easily access new information and you don’t have to worry about loosing a calculator when you have it on your phone. But there are negatives with all this. First your phone is an easy distraction with social media and texting. When your on social media you sometimes forget about work and then you’ll have to either do it at home or it might become overdue. The same thing goes for games. Theres also the distraction of texting.

The other element that could be necessary would be all the clubs. I don’t really know how to explain it but joining clubs could make you become more successful for being more social
