SOCIAL MEDIA

NETIQUETTE
What is Social Media Netiquette?

Netiquette is a set of rules that encourages appropriate online behavior related to the
social and cultural norms of a community (Preece, 2004). These rules can vary
depending upon the environment/context (informal/formal), people (familiar/unfamiliar
with each other), activity, and type of technology used (Center for Teaching, Learning
and Technology, UBC, n.d.; Preece, Noncompliance of netiquette rule use can be
interpreted as a sign of disrespect.
What is the importance of social media
netiquette?

Netiquette (Online Etiquette) is a set of rules that encourages appropriate and


courteous online behavior. These rules are important as they promote communication
skills, prevent miscommunications, and help you understand what is socially
acceptable when working and collaborating online.

you would like to be treated) is relevant wherever there is human interaction.
Why do we Need Netiquette Rules?

The rules of etiquette that apply when communicating online are different from those
that apply when communicating in person. It cannot be assumed that students
automatically know how to communicate in an online environment. Netiquette rules
have emerged to facilitate online interactions in the absence of visual and auditory
cues, which can often be sources of misunderstandings, as readers can easily
misinterpret messages. Knowledge of network etiquette discourages inappropriate
online conduct and conflict (Mintu-Wimsatt, Kernek, & Lozada, 2010). Class
interactions using netiquette encourage social interactions, community building, and
trust between participants. It promotes a safe, engaging, respectful, and collaborative
group where diversity of opinion is valued.
