Has your mother ever told you not to put your elbows on the table? How about not to text at the dinner table? Eitiquette is a very important part of how we communicate and deal with other people. Etiquette can be defined as, “conventional requirements as to social behavior; proprieties of conduct as established in any class or community or for any occasion.” (dictionary.com), but what does that mean? Essentially it means that there is a proper way to conduct yourself in any given situation, including when using technology. Today’s webquest will help you to know the rules of proper conduct when using technology.

I hope that today you learned a little more about proper behavior when using technology. The way

we communicate with one another is ever-changing, but the way that we treat each other (with respect and dignity) should never change.

Even as new technology develops, we must make sure that we are using it properly and positively.
