Netiquettes – kids should learn


Netiquettes

At this extraordinary situation of coronavirus outbreak when most of the schools are closed, online learning is the only option to keep children’s learning going on. So, parents need to teach their children about the rules of netiquette.
The term 'netiquette' comes from the combination of two words -'network' and 'etiquette'. So, netiquette means rules of online behavior or social code of network communication. According to the Montessori Chino Hills,CAteachers understanding the basic netiquette guidelines will help children to become polite and responsible internet users.
The top netiquette tips for kids are as follows:
  • Treat other users online as you would like to be treated. Parents should teach their children to be polite while interacting with others online. Children should understand that they should respect the person they are communicating online.
  • Don't involve in cyberbullying. This is a very common issue as many kids have faced bullying themselves or know someone who has been bullied by their peers at school. Cyberbullying, bullying over the internet, has become a serious and growing problem of this generation. Parents should teach their children not to involve in any kind of cyberbullying.
  • Never reveal any personal information. Educate your children to never reveal any personal information to anybody online, even though they know the person. The internet is full of fraudsters who may trap children into sharing personal details such as name, address, phone number, etc.
  • Share positive messages. Kids should not post any false or negative or rude messages or comments online. If they need to post anything online, that should be positive and truthful.
  • Check your comments before sending them. During their online classes Child Care Chino Hills CA, teachers always encourage their students to think properly before posting any comments or messages online. They should double-check the content of their comment before pressing the send button. 
Besides encouraging your kids to follow the above-mentioned netiquettes, you should remember that this online learning is a new process and kids will take some time to adjust to the new system. Parents need to be careful and observant while children are attending an online class and guide them properly when things seem to be getting off track.
