  • Tell students the importance of digital footprints 
  • Teaching students to be sensitive to what they post
  • Create a meaningful lesson to teach this students. Have students "Google" themselves, or use the metaphor that digital footprints are a lot like billboards. Thousands of people see billboards, making it public knowledge. 
  • TED Talk on digital footprints: https://www.ted.com/talks/juan_enriquez_how_to_think_about_digital_tattoos?language=en

    Agree with Mr. Jennings:
    • Technology is not stopping and ALL students need to know how to use it
    • Educators have to adapt 
    • If students don't learn technology skills, they won't be prepared for the future
    • The school has responsibility to teach students technology skills. Parents can reinforce these skills at home. 
    • Not every student has access to technology at home
    Disagree with Mr. Jennings: 
    • Technology should be used to enhance learning, not just to use it  for the sake of using it
    • There is new technology. Why should students learn a technology that might not be around in 1- 10 years when they enter the work force?

    • Technology is moving fast and there will always be something new
    • There must be an ongoing reinforcement in the use of up to date tools
    • Focus our teaching on applying the student's skills to become efficient, reliable, creative, collaborative  and accountable members of a digital community
    • Looking at the ISTE standards we were reminded that the standards are not meant to be mastered at a specific time. Instead, they are meant to be taught constantly and throughout all grade levels

However, people can have a good understanding of the skills. He understands the importance of a digital footprint and the impact it can have. He can also use technology in a variety of effective ways.
    Taylor:     Considers to be digitally literate but not 100%, because there is always going to be something new to learn. Taylor is able to create, communicate, and using critical thinking skills while using technology.
    Stacie:     Considers herself digitally literate because of the progression on learning that is happening. She can communicate, create, contribute, and accommodate with fluency for her community of learners and followers.
    Greg:     Feels daunted by the idea of being digitally literate, because there are new technologies every time he turns on a machine. He wants to feel a sense of comfort and understanding while using technology]]>     2016-10-29 01:18:28 UTC https://padlet.com/tnippoldt1/tzv4fqlohj8o/wish/134017110
