Netiquette refers to the rules of etiquette for online contexts. In
this project, I explored many of the common rules of netiquette to design
and write a page I could use to introduce to my students to behavioral expectations
for online work. I put the expectations in the language of the "Titan
Way", the Positive Behavior Intervention Strategies (PBIS) framework
used in my school so that when I share the page with students, the
language will be consistent with other behavioral expectations within the school.
Most
of the rules of netiquette I ran across were already familiar to me
from my own use of the Internet, so most of the time I spent writing the
content was used to reframe these rules within the Titan Way. This
project also started me thinking about how best to introduce the topic
to students. In a traditional classroom, I typically send a portion of
the first class period reviewing the syllabus and going over my
expectations for the students. In an online or blended environment, it
may be easier to take the time for a discussion of the expectations
where my netiquette page serves as a starting point, rather than a
static set of rules.
In terms of technical skills,
this website was my second webpage created using an original CSS
document and my first use of an aside box.
