For this tip I would have the students work in small groups and read through different scenarios that they may encounter. They would share with each other if they would do the action face-to-face, over the internet or both and explain why. I would extend further to have them come up with their own scenarios that we could discuss as a larger class.

For this tip I would have my students practice reading messages and texts out loud. This will not only give them practice in reading their own messages out loud, but will also allow them to hear how certain messages can be misunderstood. I would have them work with partners and read aloud pre-written texts and also have them come up with their own.

Be safe!
The internet can be a dangerous place if not respected and used correctly. Although you may be a good digital citizen, it doesn't mean that everyone else is. Be sure not to reveal any personal information online. This includes but is not limited to your address/location, the school you go to, passwords or any other personal information. This information is private and its important to keep it that way.
I chose this tip because it can be easy to gain false trust in someone or something over the internet. Malicious acts take place every day online and learning to distinguish between when it is appropriate to reveal personal information and when it is not, is crucial for students. Often times, people who are not good digital citizens will manipulate and their victims while hiding behind the safety of their computer screen.

Adhere to the same standards of behavior online that you follow in real life.
Just because you are communicating over the internet, your words and actions can have just as big of an impact on your life. It is also easier to communicate harmful or disrespectful comments over the internet due to the lack of face-to-face interaction.
I chose this tip for two main reasons. The first reason is due to the prevalence of internet in today's society, combined with the increased use of technology among the youth. The internet has become a major way of communicating in American society and the use of technology in classrooms has also increased. The second main reason that I chose this tip is to address the issue of cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is one of the most popular forms of bullying among students. Nearly 43% of kids have been bullied online. 1 in 4 children has had it happen more than once. Its important for students to understand their peers are people and can be affected by the words you say and write over social media.

Be forgiving of others mistakes.
Not everyone online will know or be aware of the rules of netiquette. It is important that you are forgiving for their mistakes. Give them the benefit of the doubt and trust that they are beginning to learn netiquette. You don't have to always point them out, but if you do, make sure you do so politely.
I chose this tip because it is important to teach students that pointing out netiquette violations is often an example of poor netiquette. Often times bringing up netiquette mistakes can be taken as rude or arrogant. Students need to know that not everyone will be as experienced in netiquette as them and vice versa. Giving others the benefit of the doubt will allow for a more productive and welcoming online environment.

Be aware of strong language, all capital letters, and exclamation points.
As stated before, online messages and texts can be misread or misunderstood. It is important to read everything out loud before you send it. This can help decrease the amount of confusion and misconception you may face.
I chose this tip because it is important to teach students that online interaction can lead to many misunderstandings. It is important that students are aware and realize that interacting online is very different from face-to-face interactions and what they say online often is misinterpreted. By being aware of this, students can practice reading over anything they say before they post.

Netiquette simply means network etiquette. It is about being a safe internet user. A good online citizen is responsible, smart, and has respect for one self and others. There are rules to follow to make sure you have the best possible experience.

It is important for students and yourself as a professional, to practice netiquette due to the increase of technology in classrooms today. Students need to understand the common rules to be a good online citizen. Due to the lack of face to face interaction and feedback, online messages are not always perceived the way they were intended. These online rules help to ensure miscommunication is less likely to occur.

Often times students do not realize that what they put online is permanent. It is important to teach them that once they send or post ANYTHING it stays out there forever. This is why it is critical to understand and practice netiquette or digital citizenship.
