Shine Bright Like a Diamond - Digital Etiquette Starters
Hello, I hope to visit with classes online whenever I can and hope you will:
Get Caught Shining Like a Diamond
1 - Keep your microphone muted until asked to speak (try to set up your meeting and learning environment with as little background noise as possible).
2 - Show how attentive you are by sitting up and looking into the camera screen with a calm body (as if listening to a story during class carpet time). Your head and shoulders should appear centered and facing the camera (as much as feasible) to show that you are paying attention.
3 - Actively participate when asked to give answers by microphone or reaction.
4 - Leave the microphone, chat, screen share/writing tools, and all computer areas inactive until asked to use them (inactive = don't touch).
5 - Show kindness and respect. (Demonstrate that you care about the teacher, students, and the work).
I would love to acknowledge individual students, groups, and classes with a Diamond Digital Badge (posted online and emailed) symbolizing how great you are interacting online. In addition, I will list these students, groups, and classes (by individual name) in a drawing to get a special mail or delivery item from me. Click the class response link to suggest reasonable items you would like sent to you as a prize (recognition online, you name the student friendly online activity and invite friends to share screen, food item, small gift, digital prize, special e-post card/letter, by email, etc.): Class Response.
