Netiquette Policy :

Netiquette describes what you should or should not do if you want to get along with other Internet learners. Since you will be using an online forum to enhance this course, it is important to familiarize yourself with this policy.  Consult The Net: User Guidelines and Netiquette by Arlene H. Rinaldi: http://wise.fau.edu/netiquette/net/index.html. for full information.
The following is the netiquette statement for this course:

• As a member of the academic community, conduct yourself in person, in print, and online in a responsible way and in the spirit of courteous educational inquiry.

• Be courteous, even when you disagree, and always provide clear, logical support for your views.

• Clear communication of meaning depends entirely on your word choice and visuals, so choose your words and visuals carefully to communicate effectively with your audience.

• Avoid typing in all capitals because it is difficult to read and is considered the electronic version of "shouting."

• Abide by the policies of the College and the laws of the state and the country for electronic communication. The College policies are listed in the NVCC Student Handbook.
