My Digital Footprint By Nadia Blower

Reflection on my own digital Footprint When I search up my name on Google, I find something I wish I didn’t have up, but things I’m glad others can see. I find my old blog from when I was very young, which I really wish I never posted as it is a bit embarrassing, but I also find lots of things from my Autism Awareness Fundraising, including my nana’s paper article, and my old fundraising page! I find a photo from last year, as well as a photo from almost 3 years ago! There isn’t too much of myself online, and I am proud that I don’t really have anything bad or embarrassing.

What information did you learn that you would pass on to other students? I think I would tell other students that their digital footprint could effect them the rest of their lives and that they need to be careful in what they post. They should always check and stop to think before they post because even if they delete it, it is still in the internet cyberspace!

How would you go about telling other students you information? I wouldn’t tell them straight up, because if they are younger that might scare them. I think I would tell it in a fun, appropriate manner that would get my point across without making it seem scary or boring.

Conclusion on My Digital Footprint. My digital footprint is very important to me as I want to get a good job in the future, and I know that if I post something rude, or revealing, I could lose that job, or a scholarship, or even a friend in the process. A bad digital footprint could wreck my career and personal life!
