  1. Electronic Etiquette Communication Skills for Email and Blogs

  2. Parts of an Email • To: this is the email address of the person you are writing. • Cc: this is where you can add the email address of another person whom you also wish to receive this message. • Subject: a short phrase that tells the main idea of your email (usually just 2 or 3 words) • Text box: the body or content

  3. Text • State your message clearly. • Remember to use good writing skills. • Write in a professional way because you have a real audience. • Always type your name at the end of your email.

  4. No Privacy Anything you write on the Internet in an email or on a blog is going to be read by someone else. School rules about using appropriate language also apply to emails and blogs. Don’t write anything you wouldn’t want your mother or grandmother to read!

  5. Think about Your Audience:Writing Style • As authors, everything we write has a purpose. Our purpose determines what style we use in our writing. Let’s look at 2 styles: • Casual Writing • Formal Writing

  6. Casual Writing • Used when writing a message to a friend for fun • Often uses slang, abbreviations, and emoticons :)

  7. Formal Writing • Should be used for any kind of school assignment • No slang or abbreviations • Use capital letters and punctuation correctly • Use spell check (Spelling is important!) • Use complete sentences

  8. Safety Issues • Do not give out your email password to anyone except your parent! • If you receive anything inappropriate or notice anyone near you doing anything inappropriate, report it to your teacher immediately!

  10. Blog Writing • All the same rules apply for blog writing that apply to email writing. • Remember that when you publish on the Internet, your audience is the entire world! • Use your best writing skills, use spell-check, and reread what you wrote before you post.

  11. The Last Thing Always reread before you click “send” or “publish.” This will allow you to make sure that your writing says what you want it to say and will give you a chance to correct any errors you may see.
