Digital Etiquette and responsible social interactions.
Social interactions can be great, we just need to be sure that we follow proper digital etiquette when interacting in public places with others.
- What is Digital Etiquette?
- Digital Etiquette can be explained as a set of "unspoken" rules that one should follow when on the internet. Following these rule can make the use of the internet better for you and for others as well. Much like "dinner etiquette" and "sports etiquette" there are certain things that are appropriate and certain things that are not.
- Ways to have good Digital Etiquette
- Treat people online as if you are in person
- Do not take other people's work without permission or without giving credit
- not only is the bad Digital Etiquette, it is plagiarism.
- Do not post photos of people without their permission.
- Keep conversations appropriate
- If you are in a chatroom, remember that they are for everyone. You need to be considerate of others when making your opinion, view, and beliefs heard.
- AVOID TYPING IN ALL CAPITAL LETTERS
- This gives the appearance that you are shouting, and no very many people like to be shouted at.
- Be appropriate with pictures, videos, or anything else that you personally put on the internet for others to see.
