Today we watched an excellent presentation by Jesse Miller. He provided us with a world of information regarding technology and its place in the world today. More specifically, in elementary schools. I was left with many answered questions and great interest going ahead.
The presentation made me eager to go through my digital footprint and and ensure that I do not have any needless loose ends such as abandoned social media accounts. I feel that in order to be a responsible internet user we should all be aware of our own footprint and all of the different impacts our online activities can have. If we are able to take ownership over our footprint we will not have to be concerned about interacting inappropriately online unintentionally. Which I feel happens all too often.
I will continue my education in understanding the impacts of technology on elementary aged students by diving further into understanding the relationship young people have with video games. Fortunately Jesse recommended a great book on this subject. I plan on buying it soon.
