Watch the 'Play it safe and fair online' video. Using the video, the poster on the right, and the Being Safe online handbook, come up with some dot points of safe uses and unsafe uses of technology in the table provided in your workbook. It may be a good idea to list the safe uses first, so you can see the potential unsafe uses from your written responses. Some examples have been provided for you.
Digital Footprint
Digital Footprint
We don’t always think about where we will be in ten years, but imagine yourself in the hands of a recruitment agency that will be performing a search when you apply for a new job, register to enter a program of study, or apply for a traineeship. In ten years, will you be happy with what these recruiters might find out about you? Your digital identity is defined by your behaviours and by the content you post about yourself and others. Vlogs, social networking ‘likes’ and tagged photos all shape how you are perceived by others online and offline, both now and in the future.
Engaging with social technologies (social networks like social media, online dating) requires an understanding of the potential risks. If used well, social technologies can enhance your friendships, relationships and even secure a good job.
Using social media is one way of exploring your social identity. By engaging with social technologies you are giving out an image of who you are now or who you hope to be. Social media allows you to completely change your identity, which is a lot harder to do in the face-to-face world. It offers scope for creating very imaginative identities.
Remember, online information that you share with others can NEVER be removed. Your personal information may end up being seen by people you don’t know, including potential employers.
