Document Summary

The guidelines below outline expected online behavior by basically making explicit what is implicit for most of us. In an effort to keep this document as succinct as possible, there are guidelines that are not mentioned. You may prefer to review the variety of online resources and links from which these are copied and create your own list: http://www. albion. com/netiquette/corerules. html , http://www. library. yale. edu/training/netiquette/ , http://www. edutopia. org/netiquette-guidelines , http://www. studygs. net/netiquette. htm. For a very light-hearted netiquette quiz more suitable for students you might want to visit betty"s netiquette quiz (http://www. carnegiecyberacademy. com/funstuff/netiquette/netiquette. html). Start with a strong subject line. Think of your subject line as the headline of an important news article. Make sure the subject line relates to the message content. Use the inverted pyramid form of writing. Your most important statements should appear in the first paragraph. Keep paragraphs short for easy reading. Use sub-topic headings within your email message, especially if the message is lengthy. Refer to the subtopics in your first paragraph.
