This is my digital footprint infographic. It shows all the ways to maintain a digital footprint and the consequences if it is not kept. For this Digital Footprint Assignment, I used the website canva.com. I chose this site because it is easy to access and use. Along with the convivence, the layouts from this website are very organized making it easier to read and understand the topic.
When I googled my name and BC, nothing relating to myself showed up. This can be because my name is very popular and I do not publicly post often on the internet.
Social Competency Reflection
I am aware that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences including ones that affect my future and career goals. So I aim to adjust my actions to use the chart above to maintain a good, safe digital environment for myself and others.
Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence include, thinking before I post something. When I was younger I did not think about what I posted and now I cannot delete those posts because I have forgotten the password to my old accounts. I have learned from this and now I keep any accounts that I have on private and post cautiously. Another strategy I have is only commenting/replying in a positive manner. If I do not have anything nice to say, then I refrain from writing my response.
Some of the ways I work to build and maintain relationships online are often communicating with my well known peers. I try my best to check up on friend especially during the pandemic where we are not able to meet in person as much and pre-COVID. On the internet I aim to have positive interactions and refrain from online fights.
