Digital Footprint

Writing Reflection: Just as you can be a different person to different people (sibling, child, cousin, student, friend, etc), you can be deliberate about developing different areas of your web presence.  Even at your age, it is important to begin thinking about creating a more formal or “professional” web presence. 

Think about the specific "footprints" or information you leave behind on the sites you access. Some site you might just read or visit often, other sites you might have an account and post information.  If the web was the only information someone had about you, what would they think about you? What assumptions would they make about your habits & behaviors?  Leave your answer in the comments - be sure to add your first and last name.

Quizlet Introduction

Welcome to My World

Introduction to Class Blog: We’ll be using this site for teacher-to-student communication as well as student-to-student communication. My goal is to do at least one blog post per week. Generally I will post on Monday and you have until Friday to complete the weekly blog by leaving a comment.

Ground Rules: Before we get started we’ll have to set some ground rules. First of all, all postings to this site must use school appropriate language. When you post, write in complete sentences. Key your first and last name at the end of your post so I know who posted it (all posts are worth points). When commenting on another student’s post, keep your comments non-personal. You can agree or disagree with a comment but refrain from sarcasm and/or put-downs. State your position on the issue at hand and why you feel that way.

Your first post assignment: In a Word document respond to the following. When you are finished, spell check and proofread - be sure to key your first/last name at the end.

    1. Have you ever blogged before?  
    2. What do you want to learn in this class?
    3. Read the following quote and write a paragraph on what this means to you and how you can put this into an action plan.

Quote:  The future depends on what we do in the present. -  Gandhi.

Now, copy and paste your response as a comment on this blog using the comment link bottom right of this post.  Ask if you don't see it. Select the anonymous at the bottom and follow directions by entering security word verification given.
