The Modern Netiquette: Personality Types
|
I saw an interesting article in the New Success textbook and decided to find it online and I thought I �ll just mention this for those of you who teach "Personalities" to intermediate teens/adults. you can move to the next personality type by clicking "Next Flame Warrior" Each type is illustrated by a funny caricature. Here �s the foreword from the author: "Some years ago, a calm and quiet discussion forum that I belonged to erupted into a burning flame war. While the forum burnt, I amused myself by drawing caricatures of the main participants. Over the years, the list of online fighters has grown into the Flame Warriors - the different personalities we become when we go online." In the book they only mention several types: furious typers, diplomats, evil clowns, coffee mornings, bores, therapists, trollers, newbies, grunters, lurkers. The original collection is much bigger, so it�s up to you to decide what�s appropriate for your students. Sophia
