How might your digital footprint affect your future opportunities? Give at least two examples.
-Your digital footprint is a trail of information that records online interactions and once something is posted or shared online and released into the world it can be there forever, so if this post is not family friendly or you wouldn’t want people that you know to see it then it probably shouldn’t be posted and that can affect your future jobs opportunities and career paths you may take.
-Your social media is like your life platform you want everyone to know what your up to, what you like to eat and just pose in front of the camera, but some post and videos could have a negative impact on the people around you so you should only post things that are positive and you wouldn’t mind others to see because future employees with probably search you up to see your past information.
Describe at least three strategies that you can use to keep your digital footprint appropriate and safe.
-One strategy is to not post stuff that you wouldn’t want other to see or for the world to see.
-Before posting anything on social media you should think about who is going to see this and how they are going to react to this video and or post. This is one of the most effective and simple way not to post something that wasn’t suppose to be posted.
The third strategy I would recommend is to be careful who you associate with because people sometimes aren’t who they say they are. Only add people on social media that you know or that you have physical interacted with.
What information did you learn that you would pass on to other students? How would you go about telling them?
-I would always check what ever you are posting on social media or just even sending a text because some people can take advantage over it and it can ruin your online life and reputation. I would share this information with other students by showing them techniques and tricks to keep your digital footprint safe.
