Netiquette

Talking about netiquette, it is a internet etiquette. Netiquette can be a guidance when using online learning. So there are some core rules of netiquette:

1. Remember the human

When you are holding a conversation online, it is easy to misunderstand your partner's meaning, and it is frighteningly easy to forget that your partner is a person with feelings more or less like your own.

2. Adhere to the same standards of behaviour online that follow in real life

People sometimes forget that there is a human being on the other side of the computer, some people think that a lower standard of ethics or personal behaviour is acceptable in cyberspace. Standard of behaviour may be different in some areas of cyberspace, but they are not lower than in real life.

3. Know where you are in cyberspace

Netiquette is different in different places, it is important to know where you are.

4. Share expert knowledge

The reason asking questionnaire works is that a lot of knowledgeable people are reading the questions. Few of them offer intelligent answers, the sum total of world knowledge increases. The introvert itself was founded and grew because scientist wanted to share information.

5. Respect other people's privacy

Failing to respect other people's privacy is not just bad netiquette. It is also harmful.
