Digital etiquette and responsible social interactions

What dies it mean to have digital etiquette and have responsible interactions??? Well "digital etiquette or netiquette as it is sometimes called, is a basic set of rules you should follow in order to make the internet better for others, and better for you" (nisd.net). Basically internet manners, do we as adults and teacher follow this for ourselves? We need to remember we are the influence and modals for our students/ children. If you think about it who is someone who influences you or you thought highly of? Didn't you do things like them or copy them? If so you know what it is important for us to be responsible and act appropriate for our students/ children even if we don't think they see us. Point being everything on the internet is assessable to just about anyone.  As for the social interactions wouldn't we make sure that we act appropriate in front of students/ children and parents? Then why portray ourselves any way else on the internet? Well if this didn't get you thinking maybe this site will or help you further understand this subject.DIGITAL ETIQUETTE Till the next post,
