In the Classroom

Students can explore the concept of a digital footprint by searching for themselves (or a fictional character) online and reflecting on what their online presence says about them. They can discuss strategies for managing their digital identity and create an infographic using Canva Infographic Creator reviewed here on responsible online behavior. In small groups, students can act out different scenarios involving cyberbullying, online conflict, or digital misunderstandings. Afterward, they can discuss appropriate ways to respond, report, and prevent negative online interactions. Students can create a short video using Animoto reviewed here or Powtoon reviewed here promoting safe online habits, such as password security, digital etiquette, or protecting personal information. They can present their projects to the class or school community.
