CESI List Guidelines & "too many messages"

[John Hegarty]

Hi All,

Membership has now passed 1,240 and I'm sending the list guidelines again for the new folk among us. As before, nothing much new from previous posts along this vein so ignore if you know the story already.

Some folk find the number of messages hitting their inbox to be a bit overwhelming at times. If you prefer we can set it so that you just get one digest email each day with all the messages in it. Just send a message to jheg...@cesi.ie and I'll sort that out.

Thanks

John Hegarty

CESI

Guidelines

The purpose of the list as stated in the web archive of the list :

> "The purpose of this mailing list is to facilitate discussion of the ICT issues you face in your school. Together we can support each other by providing advice and information from our own experiences. Since launched in April 2008, the CESI Mailing List has become a popular and effective means for teachers in Ireland to support each other on ways to integrate ICT in teaching & learning."


If you have any queries regarding the list please email them to me off-list at jheg...@cesi.ie

• Please make sure you are replying to the subject. If you are introducing a new subject then start a new email thread. Having too much clumped together will make the web archive confusing to anyone joining the list.
The web archive can be accessed and searched here http://groups.google.com/group/cesi-list 

  
• Members of the list who are employed by commercial organisations/companies should avoid using the list to promote their products and services. Where you are providing useful information you should indicate clearly where you have a vested interest. We welcome your expertise but please don't use the list to try and promote your business in any way. 
  
• Please keep your points brief and to the point. If you have a lot to say then post a blog article somewhere and send a link to the article to the list. 
  
• Please avoid engaging in "flame wars" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_war - they sap energy and do not serve the purpose of the list. 
  
• Please avoid making personal comments, again they do not serve the purpose of the list. Please take arguments off-list rather than sharing your annoyance with the whole list. 
  

If you have the opportunity, through a blog, website, teachers meeting, a course you are attending, another mailing list etc. please take the time to promote www.cesi.ie and direct people to the list. The more folk on the list the more useful it will be to all of us.

If you find you're receiving too may messages, here's one I posted about a year ago - might be useful for new members....

I've created a "how to" video for anyone who's feeling swamped by email from this mailing list. 

The short video shows how to set up Gmail to filter out all mail from the CESI-List into a separate label, which you can dip into when you get a minute, keeping your inbox clean as a whistle.... !
