Are our students truly aware of the digital footprint they leave behind?

The symposium brought together JHS 3 students and ICT teachers to explore crucial topics such as cyberbullying, social media hygiene, sextortion, online privacy, fact-checking, and the positive use of the internet for e-learning and career opportunities.
