Jack’s point on digital identity raises an interesting question about how the boundaries between personal and professional online presences can easily be blurred. Maintining healthy boundaries between personal and professional use requires skill and tact. While limiting what we share is important for privacy, the digital world increasingly requires us to manage both personal and professional identities. As we develop digital literacies, the challenge will be in navigating and curating these identities in ways that promote both personal privacy and professional growth. One suggestion could be developing clearer guidelines for students on how to manage these dual aspects of their digital identity in educational settings. By doing so, we could prepare ourselves not only for academic success but also for navigating the professional world, where an online presence is often crucial.
