Jazmin's Online Communication Mini-Stories

Protecting Personal Information

​Jazmin, the MarTech Publicist, knew the importance of staying safe online. She shared her wisdom with her friend Maria, who was new to social media. "Maria," she said, "you should be careful about what you share on the internet. Don't give away too much information about yourself, like your home address. Some people might use it for bad things."
 
Maria nodded, realizing that being cautious was essential. Jazmin continued, "And always check your social media accounts regularly to make sure you're not sharing too much. Sometimes, even your license plate number in a picture can be a problem."
 
Maria thanked Jazmin for her advice and started being extra careful about what she shared online.

Creating a Safe Online Space

​As Jazmin worked on the Open Educational Resource (OER) project, she understood the importance of creating a safe online space. She thought about her own experiences and how she had to be extra cautious because she was a woman of unique heritage.
 
Jazmin decided to make the OER a place where Latinas, Afro-Latinas, Black girls, and women could learn and connect safely. She ensured that the content reflected their diverse experiences and that there were no personal details that could put them at risk.
 
Jazmin's dedication to safety and diversity made the OER a welcoming place for people from all backgrounds.

Challenging Stereotypes

One day, Jazmin was reviewing content for the OER when she came across a section that perpetuated stereotypes about minority women. She couldn't believe it. She knew she had to do something about it.
 
Jazmin decided to rewrite that section, showcasing the strength and resilience of minority women instead of reinforcing harmful stereotypes. She wanted to challenge the status quo and make sure that the OER was a platform for diverse and empowering stories.
 
Her determination to amplify underrepresented voices shone through as she worked tirelessly to create content that celebrated the unique heritage and experiences of Latinas, Afro-Latinas, Black girls, and women.
 
In each of these mini-stories, Jazmin's commitment to staying safe online and promoting diversity and inclusivity in the digital world shines through. Her unique perspective and determination make her a powerful force for positive change in the OER project.
