Online Tracks-Lesson

Digital footprints are:

• Invisible and can't be tracked.

• Evidence of what you do online, including the things you post.

• Not permanent and go away after you log off the internet.

• Disappear if you delete an email, text or post.

I CAN control

• Your parents post baby pictures

  of you.

• Your friend comments on a

  video you made.

• Your friends texting in a group chat.

• A picture I put on Instagram.

Ahmad went on a school outing to a museum last week. A few of his classmates used their phones to take pictures. Tariq, one of Ahmad's friends, posted a picture from the school outing that showed Ahmad making a silly face. Ahmad didn't like the picture and was upset that Tariq posted it. What should Tariq have done in this situation?

• Not gone on the school outing.

• Not brought his phone to the school outing.

• Asked for permission before posting the picture online.

• Posted the picture anyway since it was from his camera.

In the previous question, why was Tariq's decision to post a silly picture of Ahmad irresponsible?

• His post affects Ahmad's digital footprint.

• The post did not get many likes.

• Only people that went on the school outing could relate to the picture.

• Ahmad was having a bad hair day.

• I feel very confident.
