Digital Citizenship

Yesterday we had Officer Knox from the OPP in to give a presentation on digital citizenship and safe online behaviour.

The main takeaway is that everything you put on line, be it via text, email, app, internet, etc is NEVER private and it NEVER goes away.

So please consider what you post about yourself. You are responsible for your online identity and the 'digital footprint' you create.

You never know who might see it or when they might see it.



Today I showed the class a tweet of mine that was seen and favourited by someone just this week. It was a tweet about a recipe...and I tweeted it out in August of...2010! So a tweet of mine from over five years ago is still out there for someone to view in January of 2016.

That stuff sticks around!
