Answer: How might your artifact be implemented in a learning environment?
The most important step we can take to ensure digital safety for ourselves and for our students is to recognize that each of us leaves a digital footprint every time we go online. Where we go and what we do online determines the types of threats and the degree of risk to which we subject ourselves and other members of our DLC.
We must help students understand the types and the nature of the risks that they face, as well as the gravity of the fact that their "virtual" life leaves a lasting impression on their "real" life and the lives of others. So our most important step for ensuring digital safety and our most useful strategy for keeping it on our students' mind at all times is to educate them on the risks that are inherent to online interactions.
I have created the Google Slides presentation below to implement in my classroom when we discuss digital citizenship and digital security at the beginning of the school year. In the presentation, I state that ensuring digital security requires both a key and a combination. The key is developing a self-awareness of digital footprints among all DLC members. The combination of strategies is knowing the risks, protecting personal information, protecting devices, and preventing digital abuse.
