                                                          THE GROUP PROJECT CHAT
                        Maya was excited about a new school group project and joined an online chat with her classmates
                        to discuss ideas. Everyone was polite at first, sharing their suggestions and dividing tasks. Maya
                        noticed one classmate writing rude comments and teasing others about their ideas. At first, she
                        ignored it, but then the teasing got worse and made some of her friends feel upset.

                        Maya remembered what her teacher had said about digital respect treating others online as you
                        would in person and being kind, polite and helpful. She decided to politely ask the classmate to stop
                        and reminded everyone to focus on the project. She also reported the messages to her teacher to
                        make sure everyone felt safe in the chat.
                        Through this  experience,  Maya  learned how important  it  is  to  follow netiquette rules, like  being
                        respectful, positive  and responsible  online. She realised  that  online spaces  should be safe and
                        friendly for everyone, just like a classroom.

                        Based on the above case, answer the following questions:
                        1.  What should Maya have done when the classmate started teasing others online?

                        2.  How does practising digital respect and netiquette help in online group work?
