The Digital Self

More people are using the internet for various purposes and assuming different online identities than their real selves. While the internet provides benefits, it also allows people to act differently online than offline. It is important to consider privacy and appropriate sharing when posting online. Guidelines include only posting necessary information, ensuring issues are resolved before sharing, staying within family values, and remembering anything shared can remain online forever. Assignments involve creating a poster on responsible internet use and researching the Philippines' data privacy law.

INTRODUCTION:

• These days, more people are becoming active in using the


internet for research, pleasure business, communication
and other purposes. Indeed, the internet is of great help
for everyone. On the other hand, people assume different
identities while in the cyberspace. People act differently
when they are online and offline. We have our real
identity and online identity.
3 FACTS, 1 FICTION
• Construct four sentences about yourself that start with “I
AM _________________.” Three sentences should be
true to yourself. You can talk about your characteristics,

behavior. The other sentence should be a fiction or
something that you just made up. Make your fiction as
“believable” as possible.

part of everyday life for most of the world’s population.
The Philippines is among one of the countries with the most
active Internet users.

SMART SHARING

•Before posting or share anything


online, we should consider the following
questions:
SETTING BOUNDARIES TO YOUR ONLINE SELF:
SMART SHARING

•Is this post/story necessary?


•Is there a real benefit to this post – is it
funny, warm-hearted, teachable – or am
I just making noise online without
purpose?
SETTING BOUNDARIES TO YOUR ONLINE SELF:
SMART SHARING

•Have we ( as a family or parent/child)


resolved this issue? An issue still being
worked out in the home, or one that is
either vulnerable or highly emotional,
should not be made public.
SETTING BOUNDARIES TO YOUR ONLINE SELF:
SMART SHARING

•Is it appropriate? Does it stay within the


boundaries of our family values?

small group of family members? Or maybe not
at all?
