Here’s what UBC students said…
My perspective
What’s your Digital Tattoo?
1. Search your name/partner’s name using: Google (use “quotes”, select for images, movies, too) www.pipl.com www.spezify.com
2. Consider your impressions of this person based on what you found online.
1. What can you find out about the person you searched?2. Was all the information accurate?3. Was there information missing?4. Is it good or bad to be findable online? Why or why not?5. What can you do about it?
Some things haven’t changed… People continue to redefine their personal and
professional identities as organizations and technologies change.
We still search for social connections and validation. Youth are still exploring and experimenting with risky
behavior.
Broad context
What has changed is the fact that there could very well be a permanent record of all of this, one with implications that
can't be predicted or controlled. Common Sense Media
Context: Young adults
55% of 18-34 year olds have a personal profile on at least one online social network
39% of youth have posted something on their social networking pages that they regret
1/3 of young adults on social networking sites still don’t use privacy controls on their profiles
15% of young adults report that they've had private material (IMs, texts, pics, emails) forwarded without permission
Common Sense Media
Our abilities and online skills outstrip the
knowledge and judgment needed for this environment.

Scenario #1: New immigrants
Recent immigrants are more likely than Canadian-born individuals and other immigrants to:use the Internet to communicate with their family and friends (including phone and IM). view news or sports info online (75%)
use the Internet to download music, movies or television programs and to listen to online radio.
Statistics Canada *
Scenario #2: The hiring process
1 in 4 employed adults says their company has policies about how they present themselves online.
Just over 1 in 10 (~12%) employed internet users are public personae who say they need to market themselves online as part of their job. Pew Internet Research Report, 2010
More than 80% of employers admit to using social networking sites to screen potential employees. Microsoft survey, 2010
The German government has proposed legislation to restrict the Internet content an employer can
use in the hiring process.
The great debate Is it ok for employers to search people online as part of the hiring
process?
Is it ok for employers to search people online as part of the hiring

Job applicant considerations
What does a web search about you reveal? What privacy settings are in place on your social
networking site? What kind of online presence do you want
prospective employers to see? How might you promote yourself online in new
ways? Who is looking you up and why?
Employer considerations
Discrimination: What legislation applies?
Bias: How to un-ring the bell?
Authenticity: What is real, current, true?
Privacy: What are the terms of social networking use?
Policy: What does it say about social network screening?
Scenario #3: Who has NOT seen this picture?

Parting questions:
What makes up your digital identity?
Is privacy important to you? To what extent?
How will you manage what others see about you online?
How would you like to share, connect and learn or work with others online?
How will you use the online information you find about others?
What does (digital) citizenship mean to you?
