Year in Review Topics |

What is Social Networking? It is when you use an online network while on the web. Unless
it is a wiki or chat room that you set up with some friends – most have a
specific topic which you need to stay focused on. Today we are sharing events
in 2008 which you found interesting and want to share with others. It allows
someone else to comment about your comments as well. There are some etiquette rules: don’t writing in caps, using
the "@" sign to direct a comment at someone specifically, welcome
new users to the chat by saying "hello," and by writing complete
thoughts instead of 2-3 word phrases (which are of course OK for some things
conversation, but not as the sole means of communicating). And of course stay focused, and don’t use it
for socializing via the wiki. Most importantly, you need to remember that when you signed
the Appropriate Use Agreement the beginning of the year,
that you must comply with all school rules when using this forum. |
This is an
introduction to Social Networking. Remember to use safe practices when you go
online, regardless of the online environment. |
