I explain how my page makes a strong, lasting statement about who I am and what I value. I always think twice before sharing any content, and I tell students that before I hit "Post," I imagine friends or loved ones looking over my shoulder. What would they think?

sgtpezzer on 14 Apr 16This is an excellent idea. In my past life, before I considered becoming a teacher, I might have benefited from this advice. Now, that I am a teacher, this is even more crucial to think about. It needs to be reinforced in the students' minds that they need to be careful about posting online and that what you put out there, never really goes away. - Jason Lopez

I urge students to share digital versions of their best work to highlight their unique passion and potential

This is an excellent idea, especially for the artists and writers in your class. It cannot hurt to start building an online profile, sooner rather than later, and a student showcasing their work is a great start. LinkedIn would be a good beginning for students to create a professional online presence. However, students need to be shown that care and attention needs to be paid to this presence and like other social media platforms, they should always exercise proper judgement before posting and/or sharing anything. - Jason Lopez
