Opportunity

Responsibility

Everywhere we go online, we leave our digital footprint …

Everything we post and share…

Once it’s on line you do not control where it goes …

Digital information is forever …

…or who can potentially access it

“We are living online, but have yet to fully realize the implications of doing so… One of these implications is that our tracks through

the digital sand are eternal.” John Batelle

Remember, colleges,

future employers,

and organizations

will be looking at

your digital footprint

now and in the

future. What does your footprint say about you?

Digital citizenship is about establishing the norms of appropriate, safe, and responsible

behavior when using technology resources.

Digital citizenship requires respecting ones

self and others when using electronic

communication devices and not utilizing

technology to hurt, harm or deceive others.

Digital citizenship means following guidelines set by parents, schools,

employers and the law about what

should be accessed and when.
