Netiquette
This is a word that define the way learners should act when communicating on the Internet. We would like to use this space to give you some tips of what to do:
Language: Please pay attention to the way you address your colleagues and, also, trying to be as clear as possible in your answers, so others can profit from your ideas.
Answering questions: Try to be as clear as possible and do not post too extensive answers.
Sending e-mails: We firmly recommend that the learners exchange information and help each other during this online course, as they can be answering the doubts of more than one person.
