This document discusses digital footprints and media overload. It addresses how everything done online leaves a permanent record and can impact one's reputation. It also notes that many students are losing sleep and experiencing anxiety from excessive social media and technology use. The document provides tips on managing digital footprints, prioritizing tasks, limiting distractions, and getting proper rest to balance technology use and responsibilities.

1. Two Areas I Want to Address Today:
Your Digital Footprint:
Reputation Management
Dr. Michael England

Education Department
Media Overload: You
don't have as much
time as you think!

2. A DIGITAL FOOTPRINT, or a DIGITAL DOSSIER, is
the body of data that exists as a result of actions and
communications online that can in some way be traced
back to an individual.

3. Your footprint in the sand is erased
by waves, but your “digital
footprint” is not erased. It is
more like leaving a footprint in wet
cement and leaving it to dry.

In this video, students learn that they have a digital
footprint and that they need to think critically about
what information they put online.

5. While you can often delete content from social media
sites, once digital data has been shared online, there is
no guarantee you will ever be able to remove it from the
Internet.
Everyone who uses the Internet has a digital footprint,
so it is not something to be worried about. However, it
is wise to consider what trail of data you are leaving
behind.

7. Scenario of a Possible Digital Footprint:
When you make visible your location settings in
Google and start texting or tweeting to Twitter or
Facebook, many people would have access to where
you are through google maps, where you are walking
as they know your address and write you a text on
behalf of your brother as they know your family
members.
A lone girl walking home from shopping might not
even know that while she thinks she's simply
recapping what she bought, she might be inviting
potential rapists with her information which gives
them her complete profile and agenda.

8. Whether or not we do anything about it,
the webbed world is full of information
about us that is provided by other
people, including their opinions about us—
the fact of life we know as . . .

9. What is an Active Footprint?
An active digital footprint is
deliberately created to share
information about yourself.
It can create an image or
“brand” of what you have to
contribute to a prospective
college or employer.
It is intentional – you are
controlling the content – and it
should be positive by showing-
off your accomplishments and
contributions to an area,
subject, or cause.

10. Build a Positive Online Presence
PRODUCE POSITIVE
CONTENT:
– Wikis
– Online Portfolios
– Twitter
– FaceBook
– Google+
– Blogs
– LinkedIn
Create a good digital branding-
personally and professionally

12. Protecting Reputations Online in Plain English

13. We cannot take this for granted –
it is not a passing fad – it is here
to stay – FOREVER!

14. Media Overload:
You don't have as much
time as you think!

15. In one study they
found that students
were losing an average
of 45 minutes of sleep
each week because of
their cellphones.
The phones were disrupting
sleep and, in turn, were
associated with higher
rates of anxiety and
depression because of
insufficient rest.

16. In a Rhode Island study, the students
who had the highest rates of
technology use also had higher levels
of anxiety and depression compared
with the rest of the students.

17. Students who feel compelled to wake up in the
middle of the night and answer texts and
answer phone calls — for some of these
students it really is anxiety — not wanting to be
left out or feel like they miss something.

18. Several students in the same study said they
slept with their phones under their pillows
because they feel "naked" without their phones.

19. A Possible Solution?
Multitasking with phones
while doing homework
pushes back how quickly
work will get done and how
your sleep will be affected.
If you had all
your attention on
your schoolwork,
you could get it
done faster.

20. By turning off your cell phone, computer,
tablet, and other devices, your brain is
free to focus on fewer things at a time.

21. Social Media

22. Yes, as soon as I wake
up in the morning.
32%
Do you check/update Facebook and Twitter after you go
to bed? (age 25 and under)
Yes, anytime I wake
up during the night.
19%
Yes, sometimes when I
wake up during the night.
27%

23. An average Facebook user
(ages 18-24) has 649 friends.

24. As of Oct. 1, 2014

25. More than 25
billion pieces of
content (web
links, news
stories, blog
posts, notes,
photo albums,
etc.) is shared
each month.

26. Someone suffering from
FAD will reduce the time
spent catching up with
friends, playing sport or
whatever it is they used to
enjoy doing, to simply spend
time on Facebook.

27. Facebook gets around a trillion
page views every month according
to Google’s own data.

28. 60% admit to using their device while
going to the bathroom.

29. Women are more active on social
media than men – 55% vs. 45%.

31. There are over
1+ billion
Twitter
accounts.

32. Japan is the only country where
Twitter is more popular than Facebook.

33. On a busy day, Twitter sees about
400 million tweets.

34. 30% of Twitter users have an
income over $100,000.

35. 1 billion is the
average YouTube
mobile videos
views per day.

36. • 144,000 hours of video each day is
uploaded.
• That is 16.5 years worth in one day.
• It is a century every 6 days.

37. More video is uploaded to YouTube in 20
days than the three major U.S. networks
(CBS,ABC,NBC) created in 60 years.

41. That's where as a
Christian, you have an
unfair advantage. You
know the author of
time, and in the Bible,
God tells us that he
wants us to be
productive.

42. How do we make time for
prayer, Scripture and
fellowship with other believers
in a world demanding our
constant attention?

43. Realize that Time
Management is a Myth.
No matter how
organized we are,
there are always
only 24 hours in a
day. Time doesn't
change. All we can
actually manage is
ourselves and what
we do with the time
that we have.

44. Proverbs 27:1
“Do not boast about tomorrow, for you
do not know what a day may bring.”
Time management is a misnomer. The real
challenge is self-management in thought and
most importantly what we do.

45. Create Time Management Goals
Remember, the
focus of time
management is
actually
changing your
behaviors, not
changing time.

46. Prioritize Ruthlessly
Prioritizing
the tasks for
that day and
setting your
performance
benchmark.

47. Get in the Habit of Setting
Time Limits for Tasks

48. Find Out Where You're Wasting Time
What are
your time-
bandits?

49. Use Time Management Tools
Know where time
is going and
planning how
you're going to
spend your time
in the future.

53. Get Plenty of Sleep, Have a Healthy
Diet and Exercise Regularly
A healthy lifestyle
can improve your
focus and
concentration, which
will help improve
your efficiency.

54. What Else Can I Do?

55. Many students have come to the abrupt realization
that social network addiction is destroying their
health both physically, relationally, and spiritually.
Some even admitted that they need to make some
radical changes in their daily habits.

56. James 4:14
“Why, you do not even know what will
happen tomorrow. What is your life? You
are a mist that appears for a little while
and then vanishes.”
Our remaining
time on earth is
being constantly
depleted, second
by second.

57. Just as we are to
be good stewards
of our money, so
also we are to be
good stewards of
our time.
The way we spend our time
becomes not just a practical matter
of maximum effectiveness; it
becomes a spiritual decision.

good news is you are the pilot!”
