As a future educator, one of the most important things to me is ensuring that my online identity is portrayed in a way that is both appropriate and that would make my students proud. I would want to demonstrate to my students that I am contributing to my field, not just preaching whatever I please over and over from year to year. I think that this blog, for example, is a pretty good track of my digital identity through grad school. I have had times where I was easily able to demonstrate my own creativity, judgement free, and have my peers view and review what I have done. Through the course of this semester, I have been proud to be able to post ideas that I believe to be out of the box in comparison with projects that I had to do when I was in high school.
To fully demonstrate my online identity, I like to demonstrate both work that I create by hand as well as pictures that I can find on the internet that demonstrate my own personality. Because we were able to choose to learn anything for the network learning project, I chose to show the art that I can create with my own two hands and edit the photos and my blog posts to demonstrate my ability to construct a visually appealing blog post. In addition, through the course of this trimester, I have only posted one video of myself on this blog, which demonstrates that I am a bit camera shy, though I do not mind typing out and expressing my thoughts. My online identity is a collection of my thoughts, my concerns, and my quirkiness.
