I find Netiquette very important, as the online communication differ widely from face to face communication. Every game has its rules so online communication rules should be followed too.
After reading the article I've realized that, even after years of using the internet, I still make some common mistakes. It is time to change that and pass my knowledge on to others

I agree with the previous comments about teaching netiquette before unleashing the students online. Last semester, I had one of my ESL students send me the copy of an email communication she had with a writing center tutor. She had written in CAPS and the tutor had politely responded to not use the CAPS. I then explained that it meant she was shouting. A great learning experience for me to teaching all of my students about netiquete.

An effective way to present internet etiquette would be: Firstly, learners discuss in groups behavioral problems on internet, and possible solutions. Then, the groups present their ideas in class and discuss possible solutions. The netiquette code could be presented either on hand-outs or by visiting websites with relevant material. A follow-up would be to request learners to reflect on what they have read or find out.

Hi friends, the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation in Malaysia created this website to provide information to the citizens about cyber security. www.cybersafe.my/home.htmlThe website is in English. I invited a speaker from this organization to deliver a speech about netiquette to students in schools and colleges. In classrooms, I bring up cases involving cyber crimes to share with them. From there, I inform them some ways to protect themselves in the virtual world
