At home, you get to lock the door and only invite people you know, but on the web, your door is wide open and people from miles away can see right into your house.
Is your home on the web ready for visitors? Or is it dirty or embarrassing?
Employers and colleges are looking at your online presence to see if you're worthy to work with them. Take Cornell notes on these articles and tell me what you think. College Prospects Are Being Watched and Employers Use Facebook
In the comment section, analyze your own online social networking profile to determine if your posts and pictures reflect poor or positive digital citizenship. In my comment section below, explain the changes you made or why you didn’t need to make changes.
I have a myspace that I do not have the password to anymore and i tried to make changes to earlier this year but will not allow me to. Another thibng is that it is now on google when ui research my name and that reflects poor digital citenship and i really need to change it quickly.
ReplyDeleteBrittany, I'm glad that you're conscious of your image. Remind me to help you erase the Myspace.
Deletei don't think i have to change my profile because i don't have thing to hide.
ReplyDeleteYou have such a common name, so we really want to make sure that your new online image is filled with positives about you so that you aren't mixed up with some other "bad Tony Lee".
DeleteThe changes I made to my facebook was take down some pictures that was not representing me in a good way. I also deleted some status that contained profanity or just things in a bad manner.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you made the changes.
DeleteThe changes that were made were pictures and the profanity that was used between friends and I. After making this decision I deleted pictures that I felt were inappropriate and didn't reflect my character. However, typing my name into google does not show that I'm a poor digital citizen because it is actually positive. My mom and I had a dicussion about the things I post on my social network when I was a freshman. Therefore, as of now I"m currently watching what I post and barely get on. However, it is very addictive to sign on just to see whats going on in school, other people's lives, and etc.
ReplyDeleteExcellent response, Kimesha. I think you should still get on the sites, but just be aware of your actions.
DeleteI honestly had to earse some things on facebook because people in my family thought it wasnt suppose to be there. Recently I haven't earsed anything because I have learn to be more mindful of what I put on the internet. I know that i reflect the image of my mother and i wouldnt want anyone to think that my mother is a bad mother. I believe that my facebook definitely reflects positive citizenship.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear that your family is helping you stay safe.
DeleteI recently went and changed my facebook and twitter password. It was a password all of my friends have. I know we play harmless jokes on eachother,but someone from the outside looking in will not understand that. Thats why my info was changed so know one would get the wrong empression from the joke we play.
ReplyDeleteGood point, Cortney. I'm so surprised that people commonly give out their passwords.
DeleteMy mothers sees everything i post so I make sure I watch what I post
ReplyDeleteAll of you did a great job replying to this one. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI do have a twitter; however, I don't get on it as often as my peers. When I do I post whatever I feel like saying. Some are provacative and some are not. I don't have any explicit pictures on there. I will be aware of what I say on there now. Other than that, my page is okay.
ReplyDeleteI have always had a clean house. I was well prepared and I understood how I was supposed to represent myself socially.
ReplyDeleteI think thats kind of right you shouldnt wont your friend all in you info thats just me ill tell them what i wont me them to know but not all...
ReplyDeleteI believe i have a great image online so currently i am satisfied with my occurring status
