Part 1: Previewing My Data


Reflection Question: How safe do you think your Internet, Social Media, and Email accounts are? How much information do you think you have about yourself in the Interwebs? Explain your reasoning.




Part 2: Your Internet Profile
 Make sure you are logged out of any accounts that are opened OR open another Internet Browser (Safari, Firefox, Chrome). Go to Google or another search engine (Yahoo, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr), and type in your name (First and Last) and press enter. Answer the following questions:


Reflection Questions:
  1. What pictures, website links, and other information are you able to find about yourself?
  2. Try another search engine. Is there different information that appears?
  3. Roughly how many links did you click through while exploring your digital footprint? Which website provided you with the most surprising information about yourself? Why was it so surprising or interesting?


Part 3: Filter Bubbles

Directions: Watch the video below, and answer the following reflection question in your journal.

In his talk Eli Pariser says “I think we really need the Internet to be that thing that we all dreamed of it being. We need it to connect us all together. We need it to introduce us to new ideas and new people and different perspectives. And it's not going to do that if it leaves us all isolated in a Web of one.”

As you watch the video, think about his description of web companies and how they strive to tailor their services, including news and search results, to your personal tastes and interests.



Reflection Question: Provide an example where you or someone you know has experienced this personalization or “filter bubble” Pariser describes.Why do you think companies tailor or filter their results to fit their view of what individual interests and needs are?
