Personal/Social Competency Reflection
I know that my digital footprint can have both positive and negative consequences, including every click I do. So I adjust my actions to always be careful in every action in the internet and not surf unknown or unsafe sites. Because the digital footprint can affect both positively and negatively, I always have to be careful in the internet usage.
Some of my preferred strategies for maintaining a healthy, balanced online presence include staying away from unsafe link, sites, and tools. To double check and verify the links will also help to stay safe in the internet. The best thing is to reduce using internet. I will try to reduce my screen time, too.
By putting positive comments, reviews, and pictures online, I make a positive difference to my peers. Negative comments, pictures, and reviews only harm oneself no matter how long ago the actions took place. Digital footprints remain almost forever so I always try to be careful.
