After a discussion in class about digital footprints I decided to take a look at my own. I went onto Google and searched up my first and last name. The majority of what came up was my past job posts and my small business I was a part of during high school. What shocked me was a photo with someone I went to high school that she nor I had posted online on google. I may have been posted and deleted but that goes to show the phrase “internet is forever” is actually true.

I think creating an assignment about digital footprints could be a very effective way to teach students about why they should be cautious on what they post/share and how it could affect them in the future.
