Senior Seminar (IRL: Digital Identity and Its Real Life Impact)
Should our identities online reflect who we are, or how we want others to perceive us?
Is being "real" online synonymous with oversharing?
Is it safe to truly be ourselves online?
How much should we share?
How much do we curate our identities when we pick and choose what we post, who sees it, and what we delete after noticing that the stream of likes, shares, and comments that flow down our locked screens is just a trickle?
These are questions SFS seniors considered during a lesson on digital identity facilitated by the digital learning coaches in collaboration with the high school counselors. The seminar is called IRL: Digital Identity and its Real Life Impact.
During the seminar, students interacted with New Age Creators Online vs. Offline Self with Visible Thinking routine, Connect Extend Challenge, debated polarizing statements generated from Jenny Magiera's 2017 ISTE keynote, and analyzed their own digital footprints to see how much they tend to curate their own online identities.
With no right or wrong answer, it was a privilege to hear these young adults deliberate, debate, and defend their interactions with the online world. The seminar groups took the discussion down their own paths, some arguing that curation is a necessary part of building a positive online identity, or is in itself, and artistic creation. Others challenged that idea and decided to be more "real" online.
Ultimately, we left each class with the idea that we all need people to be real with, whether we find that community online or IRL.
"Online Vs. Offline Self: Who Is The Real You? | New Age Creators."
"Setting Free The Untold Stories In Education | Jennie Magiera, ISTE 2017 Keynote."
(We showed from 24:27 - 28:34)
Student notes from Connect, Extend, Challenge

Thanks to the high school counseling team for your collaboration on this project, and the high school seniors for engaging in discussion, opening a window into your online and true selves.
