LESSON 3: DIGITAL TRACKS
THE LESSON MISSION
THINK ABOUT IT

Tool Boxdigital footprint: A record of what you do online, including the sites you visit and the things you post. It can also include things that others post that involve you, such as pictures or comments
responsibility: something that we should think about before we act |
EXAMINE THIS
MAKE A CONNECTION
These images are both examples of how animals leave imprints on their world, even after they're gone. We can learn things about animals based on those imprints. In some cases, like with fossils, those imprints last forever. What about humans? What imprints do we leave on the world?
In addition to the physical footprints we leave on the earth, we also leave a footprint when we're online. And that footprint, just like a fossil, can tell a lot about us and can last for a very long time. This is called a digital footprint, and it is a record of what we do online, including the sites we visit and the things we post. It can also include things that others post, like pictures of us or comments about us. Not everything in our footprint is under our control.

KNOW YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
Given that our digital footprints last a long time and that we're not always in control of what becomes part of our footprint, there are some responsibilities we have when it comes to being online. A responsibility is something that we should think about before we act. In this case, we have a responsibility to ourselves and to others before we do something online.
