I think a good way to teach what TO do in role-playing is by outlining some of the classic things NOT to do. This will help you avoid some of the most common mistakes you can make in rp's.
[Godmoding] - Godmoding includes the following things: taking over another person's character, killing someone else's character without permission, making your character unbeatable. It's basically giving yourself more power in the roleplay than you should have. Please don't do this as it makes the rp less fun for those playing with you!
[Knowing Too Much] - If you don’t know a character, don’t pretend you do. Don’t say you’re so-and-so’s brother, or cousin, or best friend. If you don’t know the character, and don’t have permission to pretend that you do, don’t do it. Also, if the role play's maker says in the first part of the rp that some villain is working on their evil plot in secret on the other side of a country, don't pretend to know about it right away! Wait for clues to show up! They usually will! But unless your character is psychic, they would have no way of knowing what goes on in different locations within the roleplay.
[Entering Closed Topics] - If a topic is closed, don’t enter it. It’s not for you. Unless you’re invited.
[Not Separating In Character-ness from OOC-ness] - Make sure it's clear when you're in character and when you're out of character! A good way to signify that you are OOC is by putting something around your OOC words to make them stand apart from the rest. I use ||OOC Words||, but you could also use ((OOC Words)) or something similar.
