What is not a netiquette?

• Each platform has different rules: read them, use them, respect them.
• Linkedin is for professional use and Twitter gives information, whereas Facebook, Instagram and TikTok allow you to share almost any content.

Rules are important

• Not everybody can answer you when you write, people have things to do.
• Choose the right time to send things, not at school.
• Don't share too many things, people may feel overwhelmed.

Mind everyone's times

• Nobody likes being ignored, it is necessary to show interest in emails or instant messages.
• If you can't answer because it will take some time, send a quick response saying you will answer soon. That way people know you care.

Answers required

• Online learning is quite common nowadays. If you share what you know other people may learn something new from you.
• Remember all the times you have looked for something on the internet: someone else took the time to share it for you.

Spread knowledge

• Acting behind the screen may make you think you are invincible, but you aren't.
• Treat people the way you want to be treated. It is very easy to be rude or agressive when you are not being seen.

Don't let your emotions rule

• Do not use CAPITAL LETTERS, when you write that way it means you are shouting. People do not like being shouted at.
• Do not use sarcasm, it isn't understood by everybody and may create awkward situations.
• Mind your spelling!

Be polite

• Do not be a hater. Writing a bad comment is sometimes necessary, but it does not have to be a habit.
• Selfism is bad: if you only publish about yoursefl, people will get tired. Try and share other things.
• Being unsupportive: we all like it whan people help us, so why not try and help too?
• Copy and paste: try to be original ahd don't copy other people's publications. It is better if you share your own content.

What you do not have to do

• Don't send big archives, you don't know how much storage space people have. You can use the cloud or some websites for that purpose.
• If you send sensible info use encryption or passwords. This way you show you care for people.

Share the right format

• It is important that you check and compare your sources whenever you state something. It is horrible to be mistaken and everybody likes to be relied.
• Adding links is a good way to support any objective statement.
• Check also what others say and evaluate their sources.

Support what you say

• We all commit mistakes, let people learn from their errors.
• If you have to correct someone do it carefully.
• Treat people the way you want them to treat you.

We are human

• Don't share somebody else's e-mail without permission, it could lead to receiving spam.
• Don't label people in your pictures without asking first. Not everybody wants to be known.

Privacy is important
