Wrapping up of Ground Rules


Wrapping up of Ground Rules:




Hi Everyone,

A very interesting discussion on refining the Ground Rules for our course. I'd like to sum up as much as possible:

1) Most people agree with the rules established with some minor suggestions as follows.
2) We discussed the idea of brevity vs. substance. I think we can agree short posts are fine and even preferable to rambling or repetitive ones.
3) We should have substance as well in our posts We can follow the KISS principle.
4) We should avoid ALL CAPS as it is like shouting at someone.
5) Some abbreviations are okay (ok), but let's avoid extremes and try to keep a professional register in our writing.

Great job on co-creating our learning environment. I hope I have gotten the main points here.

Our first substantive discussion is now closed.

Robert
