MY SURVEY

Reflection 2/2/12

What did I accomplish today ?
I re-took my quiz, First semester quiz. I receive a final grade of 85 % before I received a 70 % but I think I can improve on the next semester quiz I take.
What IB learner profiles did you use the most ?
I used the Knowledgeable and Principled learner profile because I was knowledgeable and use the skill I learned in the previous time I was here, and principled because I took the responsibly to re-took the quiz until I improved and when I did I still took it as practice to remember the answers to my quiz.
What would you like to improve in ? and why ?
Working more afficent, and being here everyday to learn i've been tardy to a lot of early morning classes, and I think that is pushing me back cause even though it was not my fault in being tardy. Mrs. Hinojosa is busy and I can not ask her to repeat what she had taught before I arrived. An when I ask I get a small part of what she had taught previously and that is leaving me behind on a lot of things
1-6 Attiuide in technology would be ? because I ?
A 5 , I am positive about picking up my grades and communicating to get help with others.

Digital etiquette or netiquette as it is sometimes called, is a basic set of rules you should follow in order to make the internet better for others, and better for you. It's just as important to treat people with courtesy and respect online as it is in real life. When you instant message, chat, or email someone over the Internet, they can't see your face to tell if you're teasing them or saying something in jest. How do you practice good Netiquette? It's simple � just treat others as you want to be treated � with courtesy and respect. People know these rules but usually do not follow them when using the Internet. This includes hacking others computer, downloading illegally, plagiarism, and using bad language on the Internet.

This web page will give you an introduction to Digital Etiquette. Schools from around the world have put in their ideas and research into this web page. At the beginning of the project students were introduced to a "ning" for students get to know other students in their groups and experience an online communication system. Students learned how use "flickr" to find photos that had a creative commons license. Many people around the world use chat rooms like "myspace" and "facebook" which is great to meet new people and communicate in a quick and easy way but some people don't use appropriate behavior online which leads to problems which can be dangerous.
Etiquette: What is it?
Etiquette is another world for being civilized and manners. A proper description of it would be rules governing socially acceptable behaviour. Having Etiquette means you are not rude or disrespectful. You have tact and are polite. Manners are important for good impression and will guarantee a more successful future. Etiquette also means to be proper as in clean and sophisticated. Etiquette is usually incorporated in a good education plan. In different cultures you can find different meanings of etiquette. This is what composes etiquette.
Etiquette: Who uses it? 
Etiquette is used by people all over the world. In the 1800’s, Etiquette was obligatory. If you did not have propriety or manners then you were considered a disgrace and a street rat. Nowadays the formal teaching of proper etiquette is used mostly by wealthy and important people. But in some homes, you can also encounter it. Etiquette in some religions is a rule. That means a Muslim will have a different etiquette than a Buddhist. People who want to be successful in life also have a proper etiquette. That is why most people have a proper etiquette. 

Etiquette: Why is it used?
When you use etiquette, it shows propriety. On the internet, people use etiquette to be respectful and appropriate. Also when you are in a computer lab with others, if someone does not log off, instead of hacking them you can kindly log off for them. People have etiquette to maintain respect in society. Etiquette is normally used because people need to respect each other. When you have a good etiquette, people show you respect and feel more comfortable around you. It is used to be sophisticated and not rude and disrespectful. But sometimes the opposite of etiquette is used which is rudeness and a lack of tact. This is found especially in groups of teenagers who use it to look cool around friends. This is not right. Someone could get physically or emotionally hurt. This is why etiquette is used. 

Etiquette: When is it used?
Etiquette mainly appears when someone has guests, meets with other people, or during meals. It is normally found in a social group. Friends use etiquette around each other to gain a better name. Etiquette is also used when greeting another person. The better you greet someone, the better they’ll think of you. Being proper around human beings when they are at your home or you’re hosting a party improves their opinion about you. Etiquette is also used during meals. Normally during meals with you family, people do not burp or make rude noises. They sit calmly and eat with the occasional polite conversation. This is when etiquette is used. 

Etiquette: How is it shown? 
Good etiquette is shown by having a proper education, manners and a sense of tact. Having a good education means you are intelligent and can tell right from wrong. Displaying good education gives people a better opinion about you. Also dressing properly and having cleanliness is a way of showing etiquette. Manners are also an excellent way of having etiquette.

EMAIL ETIQUETTE

• Keep email as brief as possible. We all receive too many. Consider also removing excess people from follow up emails, if you started out with a huge CC list.
• Upon sending an email, please allow up to 48 hours for a response. Yes, the web moves so very quickly, but not every email can be answered immediately.
• Do NOT tweet, SMS, or otherwise send an immediate follow-up to say, “Did you get my email?” The answer is almost always yes. If it’s urgent, call.
• If it’s urgent, use standard email, not Facebook email. We don’t all have super duper Facebook mobile apps.
• Put the MOST IMPORTANT part at the top of the email, not the bottom. Again, we’re all doing a million things here. Make it easier.

BLOGGING ETIQUETTE

• If you’re blogging about someone else, link to them. It only takes a moment, and it’s how the Web was made to work.
• If you read a great blog post, and don’t have time to comment, consider passing it along simply, using StumbleUpon, Delicious, Google Reader Shared Items, orFriendfeed, to name a few.
• If you have time to comment, try to do better than “Great post.” If you can, add a few thoughts of your own, or recommend something the author didn’t cover.
• If you leave a comment, in the name section, don’t put all kinds of attempted search words. Most blogs’ comment sections don’t get picked up by Google, so it just comes off seeming like you’re trying to game search.
• It’s okay to comment about a post you wrote, and to leave a link, if it’s relevant. Just leaving a link to some random post you did- not so much.

FACEBOOK ETIQUETTE

• Please don’t send every little app you try. If you’re not aware that you’re doing it, you probably still are. Be sure to click “no” or “skip” or whatever lets you not invite me to yet another little green patch, zombie biting experience, or buy my friends experience.
• Don’t write obnoxious links back to your stuff on people’s walls. Use them to be human.
• Starting multi-user messages in Facebook is tricky, because then almost every reply becomes a “reply all.” Think about that.
• Consider who you tag in which photos. This shows up on the user’s profile as well, and can sometimes become a bit awkward.
• Sending endless promotional emails via your group gets old quick. Be mindful of this.

TWITTER ETIQUETTE

Note: use Twitter however you want. These are just some serving suggestions.

• Use an avatar. It lets us know you’re possibly human.
• If you’re using Twitter only as a link feed, consider marking your “bio” section with that, so people can decide.
• I’m personally not fond of long @ conversations. Not sure your take, but to me, something over 3 @ messages back and forth might be best suited in a DM or into email.
• If you don’t have much to say, it’s okay not to say it.
• An @ message at the beginning of a post shows up in replies. Further in, it doesn’t.
• It’s okay to promote yourself. Just consider promoting some other folks, too. Mix it up a bit.
• You’re not obligated to friend everyone back. Some people use Twitter differently.
• Removing someone as a Twitter friend doesn’t (necessarily) reflect on how you feel on them as a person. It’s okay.
• Don’t let other people tell you how to use Twitter. (Get it?)
