We did a mix book this week, I like mix book. At first I couldn't figure out how to use it at all. On the original days we were working on it I was out though. It's a liltle complicated, mine is not as good as some of these others.
Our digital literacy component this week was digital tracking. Which is what we did a mixbook on. We had to list 7 tips for helping the growth of it.Tips are;
- Do not click on a link that appears to be randomly sent by someone you know, especially if there is no explanation for why the link was sent, or if the explanation is out of character for the sender (i.e. horribly misspelled or talking about what a great deal they discovered).
- Do not click on a link that was sent to you by a business you don’t know that is advertising a great deal. Instead, perform an online search for the business, make sure it’s legitimate, and go directly to the business’ website to find the deal yourself.
- Do not click on a link that was sent to you by a business you have an existing account with.
- • Do not provide email addresses to mailing lists unless you need to do
- so.
- • Unsubscribe from listservs or websites that you do not regularly use.
- • Limit the number of times you click on ads, no matter what they are
- for.
- • Avoid “too good to be true” products, deals, and opportunities. Once
- you have confirmed your email address, they are likely to sell your email
- address to other companies.
- Make sure you have antivirus software, and that it also protects against
- spyware, programs that secretly collect your data.
- • Disable Internet “cookies,” so that companies cannot put tracking
- devices on your computer. (Sites will not be able to remember your
- preferences as well this way, which is something to consider.)
- • Investigate computer applications that block popup
- ads.
- • Examine sites’ privacy policies before you reveal any information on
- the site; avoid using sites that will share your data with others.
