Very quick & easy to complete, good reinforcement of potential pitfalls.

The videos for both these modules can be good for classroom use.

Although over 2 years old the Guardian report on what data Google and Facebook hold about you makes interesting reading - perhaps worrying reading to some. It also shows how, by using useful tools such as Google maps and routes and Google docs, a picture of your online life can quickly be assembled.
Who has access to this data?????

Digital protection is vital for students to learn and be aware of.

well presented in a concise way.

Good information given for security

Worth taking the advice given about checking your own digital identity.

Very simple yet very informative thank you

Really useful review and great links to support resources and ideas for conversation starters with learners

Good balance on focus on the benefits and positive aspects of digital use versus duty to safeguard learners against online threats.

better language, less equivocal

Really useful links that give sound advice on how to check yours/others digital footprints

A good refresher on safe use of the internet.

Short and the content relevant but not nothing we don't already know.

Digital footprint is definitely something I will discuss with learners when using technology in the classroom.

Straightforward to complete

Reinforced my strategies to support my learners with SEN.

Positive reinforcement

Nice interactive activity. Nothing I didn't already know but helpful to reinforce it.

The module is basic but the resources are very interesting

Concise but clearly explained

This Module is great, but I would have liked to see another example of how things can go wrong. I really liked the 'interview' video in part 1 and something similar here would really press the point home.

Excellent advice which I will be passibg on to my students this week.

Good insight as to how to protect yourself online.

Well informed, well laid out, easy to use and informative.

I really enjoyed this module and it got me to consider ways i can promote e-safety and your digital footprint to my learners

Part 1 and part 2 have really made me think

Protecting your information requires you to check and update your settings on social media sites and to consider the content and audience of every post you make.
I have found that the linking of this course and my research to my social media account has caused me some issues which I have had to go to see IT at work about.
One thing that has happened during lock down is I have had an attempt to hack into one of my accounts and this has made me think really carefully about how I need to set up separate identities for work and personal social media interactions.
I also note that some of the content from other people once I had gone public on a couple of post was not always very nice. This is something that made me very aware of making sure that my students were setting their posts to private where we had used social media - For example on things like Pinterest where I do encourage students to keep sketch book ideas and share them . I have found the sheer volume of pass words is getting a bit silly - I have looked at making them one line on an app but then after the hacking of my social media site I am not comfortable with this.
I think this is an area where a lot more training should be given to us as staff as it is an area I feel very unsure of in the public domains, I am happy with what to do for my own private social media but with the advent of digital learning on line I would like to see more laws and rules set up so the companies and platforms have to keep the users protected. For this reason I have a preference for Apple products as they do seem easier to use and feel safe, but workplaces use the android. Everything is moving very quickly in this area and I feel sure that once I have trained in the ways in which to set up accounts and what accounts are best used for what purpose I will feel more comfortable using the different sites to communicate and upload my learning content . I think the College is very good at signposting the students to help and support - I am very grateful for the IT support that we have in this new remote world from College, but it is hard making sure we can access all these apps and site for the learners - I think the college should may be have a central hub of apps that they use as often you cannot down load them on the College computers as they are password protected by Admin and there is limited space for adaptations on the actual computers we are issued. I may be need to think about buying my own new computer to make sure I have all the apps that are in these sites and then i would be able to hand them on to my learners - an investment I will have to make as College equipment as with schools is always behind the times and slow. .

Clear and easy to understand

Some useful reminders and points to consider.

This was quite an easy module to complete, however highlighted the importance of data security and the importance of it

Very good informative unit

Interesting point of view

Some good information to consider.

Good

Great
