Ryan Hawker's List: Online etiquette

Fact#1
Stay on point when when writing online.
-
-
-
-
Keep writing to a point and stay on topic. Online courses require a lot of reading. When writing, keep sentences poignant and brief so that readers do not get lost in wordy paragraphs and miss the point of the statement. Also, do not introduce new topics; it may just confuse the readers.

Keep messages brief and to the point. Just because your writing is grammatically correct does not mean that it has to be long. Nothing is more frustrating than wading through an e-mail message that is twice as long as necessary. Concentrate on one subject per message whenever possible.

Another rule is to avoid typing in ALL
CAPS or grossly enlarging script for emphasis, which is considered to be the equivalent of shouting or yelling.-

It does not matter what form of internet communication you are using, shouting is not acceptable. There are caveats and exceptions. Subject lines, headings, and advertisements are often in all capital letters for readability reasons.

nullFact# 3 -- 2013-04-20
Please and Thank You
Efficient and effective emails
contain courtesy. They include
please and thank you phrases
denoting respect and
appreciation. Emails should
not be antagonistic in nature.
Even responses to negative
emails should thank the sender
for his/her input. -- 2013-04-20

Emoticons are sometimes acceptable, but if others do not know what they mean, they become useless. Better to use straightforward language. In a formal setting, text-message acronyms should not be used at all (i.e., LOL or AFAIK).

Acronyms, abbreviations, and emoticons are OK within reason. As long as you don't overdo it, and the recipients can reasonably be expected to know what they mean, acronyms and abbreviations are OK to use in e-mail. Emoticons (for example ;-) a winking smiley face) are good when used in context. As a general rule, you probably shouldn't use them when talking to someone in authority unless you're sure.

Fact# 5
Be respectful of others.
-
-
Avoid using terms derogatory or condescending/sarcastic text. Even though using the internet does not require you to be face to face with a person, you still need to use a certain level of decency. You should remember that old school rule, treat others how you want to be treated.

Be respectful of others: Whether you are receiving or sending an e-mail, or participating in an online discussion, it is important to be courteous and respectful of others. Keep personal beliefs, including politics and religion out of classroom discussion unless the instructor has invited such contribution.

Watch what you say, and how you say it - While the computer brings people together, its impersonal nature can lead to remarks that people wouldn't think of saying in person. Do whatever it takes to stay courteous
