Discussion Guidelines

12/8/2014

6 Comments

 
Below you will find a list of student communication guidelines.

  1. Use a person's name when you respond to his or her postings.

  2. Compliment your peers when they post strong response or contribute original ideas.

  3. Ask questions if anything is unclear or you want further information.

  4. Be considerate, keep your language direct and respectful.

  5. Avoid slang and jargon.

  6. No sarcasm.  Sarcasm is negative and can lead to tensions and hurt feelings.

  7. Reread your message before sending them to ensure that your ideas are clearly communicated and supported.

  8. Make connections:  text to text, text to self, text to the world.  Back up your ideas with information (details, evidence, and examples) to strengthen your statements.

  9. Do not use all caps when writing; it is interpreted as yelling.

  10. Avoid emotional punctuation, like exclamation points, unless you are complimenting an idea shared.

    The purpose of a Discussion Blog is to allow students to express their point of view and allow others to respond in a respectful manner.
