2. What is a digital foot print?
A digital footprint: it’s the collection of everything we post online—and everything that others post about us—that becomes a permanent, distinct image that others can see.

3. What information about us is permanent?
Qualitative research
What information about us is permanent?

I want to show you a short video now. [Project PRO]
What did we learn from that? Anyone have thoughts?
When information about us is permanent, that’s a great thing if it’s positive. But not so great when it’s negative. You can’t erase after you hit send.
Even if an image has been deleted, if it’s online it can be copied, searched and sent

4. Tips for what you should post online
Always ask someone if you can post a photo of them or share something about them.
Be careful about sharing information that can identify you to people you don’t know ie:
Home address
Phone number
Lots of photos.
On the other hand, the stuff you post can help you build a positive image that might help you get into college or job you really want. And you can inspire others.
So when you’re thinking of your own reputation, think of others’ as well. Always ask someone if you can post a photo of them or share something about them. You won’t know how they feel about it unless you ask. When in doubt, leave it out.
And be careful about sharing information that can identify you to people you don’t know, like your home address, phone number and a lot of photos. Can anyone guess why? [Answers might include identity theft, someone you don’t know learning about where you live and your habits, etc.]
So, when we can, let’s focus on building a positive record that will help you in the future.
When in doubt, leave it out.

5. What are some ways we can build a positive image of us online?
Qualitative research
Break into teams of two and brainstorm the following question …
What are some ways we can build a positive image of us online?
Let’s do an exercise together. Let’s break into teams of 2. What are some ways we can build a positive image of us online? Take a few minutes [between 5-10] to brainstorm, write down your ideas and then we’ll share them.
[Take time to read a few. Maybe give thought starters as students are thinking.]

Ok, now that we’ve got the hang of this, let’s play a game and see if we can figure out ways we can behave online that will help create a positive digital footprint.
Play Digital Compass.  Work with students to create a team name, which you’ll need to log in to play. Choose from the following games:
Breaker—Break it down (letter N)
Wink—Me! Me! Meme! (letter Y)
Miko-Sticky Situation (letter H)

7. Thank you!
Ok, so what did we learn today? Ask for students to raise their hands.
Points to reiterate:
·         Everything online is permanent
·         Ask your friends if it’s ok to post something about them
·         You can create a positive footprint
·         Don’t overshare personal information
I really enjoyed talking with you today. I hope you had fun and learned a little something about your online reputation, as well.
