Mrs. Jackson’s Rules to Online Learning:
1. Be respectful. While it is easier to say hurtful or disrespectful things without standing face-to-face with someone, it is important to remember that your classmates and teachers are real people who are affected by the words you say and write. It is essential to keep in mind the feelings and opinions of others, even if they differ from your own. If you wouldn’t say it to someone’s face, don’t say it online either. 2. Be aware of language and sarcasm. It is easy for written text to be misread and misunderstood. Have you ever sent a text message with good intent but your recipient thought you were being rude? If so, then you’ve experienced this firsthand. By being cognizant of strong language, you can identify potential confusions before sending messages. Tip: Read everything out loud before you send it. 😊 3. Be aware of your background/surroundings. If you are asking a question via microphone, please speak clearly in the mic and notice what’s in the background. Is the dog barking at the mailman? If you are not speaking… KEEP YOUR MICROPHONE ON MUTE! |
