Galbraith, Michael W.; Jones, Melanie S.
Journal of Adult Education, v39 n2 p1-10 2010
This article addresses the issue of incivility in online teaching and learning. Incivility is defined within the context of face-to-face and online learning environments. Certain acts of incivility are explored as well as methods for prevention and reduction. Because academic dishonesty is becoming more prevalent, cheating and plagiarism are examined. Finally, the concept of developing and maintaining online culture is explored.
