Sent a message or posted a comment online?
Created a profile on a social network site?
Used some sort of photo-sharing app?
Googled your own name? Were there any results about you?
• Filling out a form, sending an email to a friend, posting a
photo, and pretty much everything one does online –
even the simple act of visiting a website or using a
search engine – leaves a trail.
– This trail is called a digital footprint.
– Digital footprint is made of bits and pieces of information on
one’s computer and on other computers and servers around
the world, which allow other people to learn about you.

Negative & Positive Footprints
• Negative Footprints
– If you are seeing inappropriate things, anyone could see the things you recently
stored.
– You leave a history/record of your views and the content of your interest.
– You never know who’s looking at your records of internet use.
– What you consider private may not be that private.
• Positive Footprints: for example, Social Media Use
– Twitter can be a time well spent if
– You “follow” the positive influence.
– You can tweet on a problem. A problem can be an academic
question, self-improvement question, or a problem of practice.
– For example:
– #IamSAUSD – for Santa Ana Alumni who makes the difference in
the world.
– #HourOfCode, #CSEdWeek, #PLTW – for information in
Engineering and Computer Science
– #CNN, #Time – for most current news & events
