Digital Footprints: What Educators Need to Know

This session explores the concept of a digital footprint and how to be an effective and ethical contributor online. Our students produce a wide variety of media, both in and out of school, and this contributes to their online representation and reputation. Learn about the importance of a digital footprint, what the components of a successful footprint are, and how we can assist students in the development of a positive and ethical digital representation of themselves.

Critical Questions:

  • Do you believe that having an online presence is critical for you? For your students?  If so, how do you develop that within the context of your professional life, and for students, within the context of your school's climate and culture.
  • Within your school, have you had the conversations necessary to understand digital reputation and presence with all members of your school community?
  • Should students publish online?  Should schools help students create a positive digital record?  What if students don't want to publish their creations?
  • What spaces have you created that are safe for students to explore their creative and critical interests?  When does that space become permeable?
  • Should contributions be local first, and global second?  Can you encourage publishing if you are not living that yourself?
  • Has your school district developed the necessary policy to support student publishing? 
  • Have you protected your digital identity by reserving your domain name, and accounts on Facebook and Twitter?  What about your school?

Presentation Takeaways

Digital is forever.

Our footprint is determined by us, as well as by others.

A typical student's digital footprint is constructed by friendship and interest-based activities.  We need to add an academic component.

Schools can help students create serious and purposeful content that deepens and extends their digital footprint or reputation.

A student's digital footprint (reputation) will have an increasing importance for them in all aspects of their lives.
