After learning in Module 2 about online communication and collaboration, I have a some tips for how to be good online communicator. You need to have Netiquette which is just a fancy term for communicating the correct way on the internet. You need to use email for most online communication and you need to know the different kinds of emails you will be sending. The most likely one you will be using in college is academic email which usually contains a subject line, greeting, the context for what class you are in, and a closing with your full name so the professor doesn’t mix up your name with another classmate. After sending the email, it is crucial to profread your message and use spell check and never use slang. Always write these emails in complete sentences. Another form of communication will be online dicussion posts. If you need to communicate on a discussion board, you need to be prepared with what you will say, make a strong argument on the topic of interest, be relevant and don’t be repetitive, and first type what you are going to say on Google Docs or Word so you have correct grammar and can edit without accidentally sending it or losing your progress if you accidentally close out of the window.
