Project Idea
Summary of the issue,
challenge, investigation,
scenario, or problem:

Students reflect on their responsibility to protect the privacy of others when posting information about them online. Students read a
true story about the unintended consequences of sharing a compromising photo, and then they consider how this situation might be
different if someone else shared the photo. Next, students brainstorm questions they should ask themselves before posting and
tagging photos, videos, or any information about others online, and create a decision tree to guide them through future choices.

Driving Question
How can you respect the privacy of others online?
