5. Other Guidelines/Netiquette*
As we start, I just would like to share some core values that we can adopt here as we learn together:
Relationship – as the group ‘meets’ in this virtual world, let us build great relationships. This is an
opportunity to build one; an opportunity that we may not have otherwise had
Respect – I foresee great conversations and different points of view. This is okay and part of a healthy
exchange of ideas. Every member of the group should feel that her/his input is respected and valued
Value – There will be different personalities in the group. As we share our opinions, we trust that
nothing shared within the group will be met with unfriendliness or hostility
Safe group – The group should commit to keeping its environment a safe place for discussion
