    communication tools
    Your course website provides a discussion forum to enable you to communicate and
    collaborate with other students taking your course. The forums are a space for you to
    communicate with your fellow students, share ideas and information and ask questions.
    This document gives some guidelines you should bear in mind when communicating
    online.

    Online etiquette
    When you make a post you should always try to include a meaningful subject line and
    keep the main text clear and concise. You can edit your own posts for 30 minutes
    once they have been submitted, so you can amend your message if necessary.

    The guidelines for good communication online should follow the same rules as if
    you were conversing with someone face to face.

     Always communicate in a polite clear manner, never be rude or offensive.


     Avoid using capital letters as this can be portrayed as SHOUTING.
     Try using emoticons (smileys) to convey your tone in a post, eg when you are
    joking or to indicate that you are asking a question.
     Try to acknowledge a forum message if you do not intend to respond to the
    content immediately, this avoids the sender feeling that they are being ignored and
    is proof that the message has been received.
     Consider how much information is necessary on the message; keep it short,
    clear and to the point.
     When sending a reply, keep it relevant to the subject of the original message.
     Ensure that all your online communications respect copyright, fair use and
    financial disclosure laws.

    We trust you to be responsible and ask you to think about the appropriateness of the content
    before you post it. Where the material is educational and relevant to share but includes
    content that some viewers could find disturbing, you must write a warning disclaimer (eg this
    material may include content that some may find upsetting).
    Views expressed on the forums are those of individuals and do not in any way represent the
    views of The London Institute of Banking & Finance.

    The London Institute of Banking & Finance has the right to remove any online
    communications that do not follow the guidelines in this User Policy. The London Institute of
    Banking & Finance has the right to remove access to the forums for users who do not abide
    by this User Policy. This includes the use of offensive language and threatening behaviour
    within the discussion forums. Offensive material includes but is not limited to: pornographic
    or obscene material, racial slurs, derogatory gender-specific comments, defamatory
    statements, discriminatory or harassing comments.
