Who is Sarah?
In this lesson, students work with publicly available data on the internet. They try to find and contextualize as much information as possible about a fictional person named ItsSarry3101. The aim of this activity is not only to develop skills related to searching for and analyzing information, but also to teach students to understand the concept of a digital footprint and the importance of safe behavior in the online environment. The lesson also refers to the concept of synthetic reality—the photos, texts, and story of the fictional person ItsSarry3101 were created using generative artificial intelligence.
