Netiquette

In order to avoid problems in

our interactions with other

people, we often develop a

set of rules that we use in our

professional lives or in polite

company.

There are five general

principles to guide their interactions with

telecommunications:



Analyze Topic. A careful analysis of the

topic. Having background

knowledge helps studentsnarrow their search.

Choose Search Engine. Choosing and using the correctsearch engine can help students

find what they are looking for.

Factors that influence to choose a

favorite search engine.

1.-The ease of its use

2.-The accuracy of its results

Use more than one search engine

to increase the chances of finding

what you are looking for.

Narrow the Search. Look for proper name or

a distinct phrase, type in

the phrase in its exact

order and enclose it in

quotation marks.

Troubleshooting. Make sure

you spelled everything

correctly. If everything iscorrect, you should rethink

what key words and terms you

used to structure the search.

Don´t be too specific because

the search engine cannotmatch anything. Check if the

words are all capital letters, the

search engine will look only for

matches in which those terms

appear in all capital letters.



Tele-presence. It

enables students toexperience events atremote sites. Students

near an ecologicaldisaster, a hurricane, or a

national crisis, for instance, can serve aseyewitnesses for their

peers.

Virtualpublishing.

Virtual publishing

hold the potentialto authenticate

learning by settingstudents’

scholarship in thereal world.

Tele-access. It is the

use of on-lineresources in learning,

including on-linelibraries, databases,museums, satellitedata, and other

classrooms.

Tele-sharing. Usingtelecommunications,

students are able to shareall forms of information ina variety of ways. It canbegin with simple e-mailchats between penpals,

advancing to one-to-many or many-to-manycommunications, etc.

Tele-mentoring. Mentors, scientist and

scholars will oftenanswer questions

and provideclassrooms with

additional sources ofexpertise in many

sites on the Internet,such as professionalgroups and bulletin

boards.



Electronic PenPals or KeyPals. Using thisstrategy, students are partnered to

communicate with another person-astudent, senior citizen, or professional in

the field. They can mutually benefitand provide an excellent opportunity

for students to practice their languageskills.

Web Mentoring. Students are paired viae-mail with experts or knowledgeablepeople in the field they are studying.

Web Resource. It takes advantage ofthe Internet as a research tool. Websites offer interactive simulations and

sophisticated databases. Students canlocate information using the Web that

they can obtain no other way.

Web Collaboration. When schoolspartner via e-mail or meet virtually at aWeb site, students or whole classes can join resources and energy to complete

a broad array of projects.

Web Survey. The Web survey strategyasks students to create and post a

survey publicly, either through a Website, listserv, or through securing partner

classrooms.

Cooperative Challenge. Students work together to meet a challenge or solvea problem. Student can work via e-

mail, meet virtually in a Chat room, or gather in groups in the classroom.

Social Action. It is often motivating tostudents to identify a problem and

address it through a service learningproject. When choosing a social action

problem, it is a useful strategy to think globally and act locally.

Web Publishing. It is appropriate to ask students to create original documentsand publish them on the Web. When

they publish on the Web, it is importantthat students become editors as well as

creators.

Simulations. Simulation activities requirestudents to use their imagination to re-

create an event or a process.

Web Quests. A WebQuest in aninquiry-oriented activity in which

some or all of the information withwhich students interact comes from

the Internet. After completingWebQuests, learners have analyzed

a body of knowledge deeply,transformed it in some way, and

demonstrated an understanding ofthe material by creating something

to which others can respond.

WebQuests incorporate activitiesthat emphasize comparing,

classifying, inducing, deducing,analyzing, constructing, abstracting,

and analyzing perspectives
