This pilot project was supported by NetTech. This web site is all about Internet etiquette. It provides a set of ten rules for Internet usage. The rule of thumb is that what is not appropriate to say to a person's face is not appropriate to say through the network either. Other rules are about being considerate, having respect for others' time, bandwidth and privacy, sharing expert knowledge, and keeping flame wars under control.
Users can also take a Netiquette quiz.
The contents are excerpted from the book Netiquette by Virginia Shea. This guide is designed for teachers, school leaders, curriculum experts, technical specialists, and others interested in electronic collaboration. It discusses ways to collaborate electronically, how to design and implement a collaborative project, how to become an effective online moderator, and how to choose appropriate tools to support collaboration. Abstracts of journal articles, digests, and newsletters are available from this site. Current Horizon projects are Challenges Implementing Distance Learning Programs and Intellectual Property, Copyright, and Distance Learning.
