Making yourself presentable online is essential.  The internet is filled with people who will notice everything you write.  They will pay most attention to what you write, and more importantly how you write it.  Since the only thing facing you is the screen, you will not be judged for what you look like, but how you express your words online,  Typing with correct grammar and spelling plays a major role when making yourself look good online; this is how most online users will portray you.  Besides correct grammar and spelling, being sure of what you write is crucial.  Make sure you state valid points, and when stating an opinion, be sure to back your argument up with facts.  Make sense of what you are saying, and be educated enough to make a valid statement.  Writing false information can cause conflict between you and the people viewing it.  Another thing to remember is to keep your statements, arguments, opinions, etc., simple.  It is unnecessary to constantly use big words; keep it simple.  However, no matter what you write, it is critical to be polite.  Although you may not agree with your fellow associate, there are ways to express your opinion politely and inoffensively.  These are all important tips when posting online.

I chose this rule because it is important, especially for teachers, to be extra careful with what they post online.  As a professional, it is crucial to conduct yourself properly when using the internet.  Remember who will see what you post, like your boss, and think about how they will react to it.

I will use this tactic in the classroom as a future educator to remind students that using the internet is not all fun and games when other people can view what you do.   I will teach them professionalism at a young age to instill this into their minds.  Be professional, be appropriate, and be polite when using the internet!

When online, we often forget who else may be behind the screen. We forget that other people, people just like ourselves, can see and react to what we post. Keep in mind that anything we do and/or say online never goes away, even if deleted. Everything can be traced back to the person doing the crime (sometimes more serious than others), so be careful!

On the internet, there are only so many ways that our words can be interpreted. However, the screen only shows our words; it does not allow us to hear them. What we say can be taken the wrong way and can easily offend someone, sometimes without the intention being there. Punctuation marks, such as the "!" can be misleading. Some may take it as yelling while others may think it is emphasizing excitement, but no one truly knows for sure except the person who typed it. The key point to remember is to consider everyone else's feelings. Put yourself in someone else's shoes, and think about how it would make you feel if you were being discriminated or offended online.

I chose this rule because I think it is essential to consider the feelings of others. Being mindful of people feelings and reactions about a specific topic is key to avoid any type of conflict that may occur when disregarding them. Being friendly and considerate is only beneficial and will always keep you out of trouble. Remember that you are interacting with other human beings; they should be treated the same way you would wish to be treated. Keep in mind the Golden Rule when doing any online communication and interaction.

Having that said, "Remembering the Human" is important to teach students in any school and/or classroom setting. This can avoid bullying and discrimination that is so prevalent in today's society if the rule is strictly enforced. As future educators, both etiquette and netiquette tips should be key rules in the classroom and on the student's own time. For every kind word or action that is done upon another student, the student doing the good deed should be rewarded to instill appropriate behavior and influence others to do the same. Students should be aware of how to appropriately and kindly treat others, and enforcing good behavior upon others will only benefit their well being. Teaching students that kind behavior is vital! It will encourage them to treat each other as equals and accept one another without having bullying and/or discriminatory behavior occur.

Treat others as you would want to be treated.

Netiquette is a set of guidelines that encourage appropriate behavior when using online tools. These rules must be followed when posting anything on the internet. It is important that these requirements are strictly enforced when entering the cyber world and communicating with others. It is a list of what is acceptable and what is not when interacting with other people online. Anything that is posted on the internet must be socially acceptable to prevent conflict with fellow peers.

While being online, it is critical to remember who can see posts and who may be offended. Always remember that everyone and anyone can see what is posted, so appropriate content is enforced. Although not face to face, you are interfacing other humans, and you should differentiate and assess what is appropriate and offensive to what is not.

Be AWARE and APPROPRIATE while being online!
