Personal/Social Competency Reflection

I know my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences including lowering my chances of getting jobs, so I adjust my actions to posting positive things online that won’t affect anything for me negatively.

I make digital ethical choices such as commenting positively on others’ posts in order to keep my digital footprint looking positive.

Before posting something online, I make sure that by posting this I won’t later regret it in any way.
