How might your digital footprint affect your future?

my digital footprint might affect my future opportunities in several different ways. It could affect my future opportunities negatively if a potential school or employer sees something negative about me such as a post that is racist, sexist or discriminatory in some way. It could also affect me negatively if they see something I posted when I was younger that wasn’t very smart. however, it could also affect me positively if I have a good digital footprint with no rude or unkind posts or if they see some interesting projects I’ve done or see some experiences I’ve had that will make me a better candidate for the job or school.

describe at least three strategies that you can use to keep your digital footprint appropriate and safe?

three strategies you can use to keep your digital portfolio appropriate and safe are 1. think before you post it’s important to think before you post because sometimes in the heat of the moment you could post something you might regret later. 2. another thing I can do is not post anything I wouldn’t want my parents to see this is a good rule to follow because often if my parents shouldn’t see it no one should. I final thing I could do is Have privacy settings on my accounts  so that  only people I know can see what I post.

what information that you learned would you pass on to other students. how would you go about telling them.

I learned that what we post on the internet as kids/teens  has a big effect on our futures. so we shoul be careful about what we post also I learned that we need to read the terms and condititons before we randomly click agree because we don’t acutaly know what we are agreeing to. To communicatethis t others I would make a poster or just inform people I know by telling this information.
