EFC NETiquette
What is NETiquette?
Netiquette is mainly referring to behaviour while using Internet facilities such as individual Web sites, emails, newsgroups, message boards, chat rooms or Web
communities. Netiquette requires that people post constructive and relevant messages on places like Usenet newsgroups.
Some examples of netiquette are listed below,
• Not using someone else's name and pretending to be them.
• Not posting or distributing material that is deemed illegal.
• Not using abusive or threatening language.
• Not posting racist remarks regarding peoples sex, race or gender.
• Not spamming message boards or chat rooms with useless or repeated messages.
• Not trying to obtain or use someone else's password.
• Not trying to obtain personal information about someone.
At EFC, we strongly believe that EVERYONE should feel respected, safe and encouraged to learn.
Please before using EFC online facilities do make sure you read our ACCEPTABLE USE POLICY. A copy is available on ERIC e-ACCESS page. Thank you.
