Skype+Etiquette

====There are some important things to remember while Skyping with another class. Below is a list created by The South Paris Collaborative. Our teachers always remind us that being on camera in a Skype call is a privilege. So our behavior online is important at all times. Hopefully, this list will help you get the most out of the experience.====
 * It is sometimes difficult to hear on a Skype call. Therefore, only one person should speak at a time. This might mean you have to raise your hand if you want to speak.
 * When it is not your turn to speak, you must keep quiet. All noises can be heard over the microphones.
 * Be polite to everyone with whom you are speaking. Keep inappropriate, derogatory, or inane comments to yourself. Don't point out what others are doing when it is inappropriate behavior for a Skype call.
 * Be a good listener - keep quiet, pay attention, make eye contact, nod in agreement, give a thumbs up, smile.
 * Show respect for everyone - don't laugh at accents or mistakes, don't make fun of disabilities or differences.
 * Remember that you are on camera throughout the entire call. Demonstrate good social self-control. Don't talk to your friends, walk around the room, roll on the floor, pick your nose, clean your ears, or make rude noises, while on camera. Keep your hands to yourself and try to be fidget free.
