Digital Dossier

There are both advantages and disadvantages to having a digital dossier. If a child were to become lost, it would be easier to track them today then it would have been years ago. Having this dossier is also a time saver since many programs save your personal information for future use. As a teacher having a digital dossier could help if you live a good, clean, legal life; however, if you were to get into trouble, it would be very easy for that news to spread. Having a digital dossier as a student could be detrimental as well. This is a prime way for predators to get a hold of personal information about the child they are pursuing. Overall this video scared the heck out of me because I have never thought about how a digital dossier begins in the womb with a sonogram. I had lots of them because of high risk pregnancies so my kids had a thick file before even being born. How scary to think that our personal information is everywhere for others to misuse ergo lots of stolen identities. I am making my dossier bigger as we speak. HA! Dee
