Digital Citizenship: Safe, Responsible, and Respectful Use of Information Technology
We live in a digital world. Today’s digital life demands digital citizenship. Digital citizenship is the safe, responsible, and respectful use of information technology. It begins with your digital footprint, your public presence in cyberspace containing all information about you found online. Your footprint can help—or hurt—your image and future opportunities including your chances for college admission and employment.
York Community Education will be hosting an important presentation on Thursday, March 6th at 7:00 p.m. in the York High School Theater. It is FREE. The purpose of this presentation is to help individuals think critically about harnessing the positive potential of digital life and avoiding its perils. You are never truly anonymous. Your digital footprint persists and endures—often permanently—outside your control.
It will be presented by Ryan Sothan, Consumer Outreach Coordinator of the Nebraska’s Attorney General’s Office. It will be about an hour long presentation, but is absolutely loaded with information that will give parents, kids and community members a lot to think about on how to keep themselves and their kids safe in this digital world. It will be well worth your time! After talking with Ryan, this topic is a necessity for all to hear! There are so many things we need to become aware of as we go about living in this digital world.
