The presentation and the movie that we watched/listened to taught us what happened in Rwanda and all about the genocide. The presentation was presented by someone that was in the genocide and had family members die. The movie was a reenactment of real events, it told a story about some one who started off being trusted by the army and the Hutus, but when the Hutus found out that Paul(main person in the movie) was caring for and sheltering Tutsis, they did not like it and started to try to kill him. Personally I think that the genocide was so horrible as there was no real reason to kill each other. So many children died and so many became orphans. I hope that something like this never happens again. In conclusion the movie showed the class what it is like not growing up with all of your basic needs and the presentation made it feel even more real because we had someone that survived the genocide talk about it. I think something like this will happen with all the current events happening around the world. Things like Isis are the closes that I think we have to a genocide on earth right now.

the digital footprint I have for my self is not bad at the moment on social media such as Instagram I do not post things that are not appropriate and don’t post things that I think would taint my digital footprint such as this image that my friend drew on a whiteboard I posted it knowing that it wont affect my digital footprint

some things that would affect your digital footprint would be things like nude photos of you or others that you send to people or people doing illegal activities which as a big issue at heritage woods secondary school .

some strategies that you can use to prevent your digital footprint from ruining your future career paths are not posting things before you thought about it an example of this may be that you have something illegal in your background and people spot that. another thing that you can do is to not use social media a lot of people think this is hard but it really isn’t and you can live without posting on Instagram. one last thing that you can do is to talk to an adult before posting to make sure that you won’t post anything and regret it.

some information that I learned over my years as a kid is that people can screenshot things and use them against you this isn’t good as they can get you in trouble and ruin your social life along with your future career paths. in conclusion, the best way to have a clean digital footprint in my idea is to think before posting or saying things online as it might come back to haunt you in your future.
