Text Messaging and Persuasive Speech Outline
Persuasive Speech Outline on "Texting while driving" March 21st, 2013 I. Introduction A. The main premise of my argument is that no one for
whatever reason should be texting while driving. B: Defining the issue: Distracted driving while texting 1. Texting and driving 2. Lack of
concentration, losing focus on driving 3. Looking at texts and not paying attention to the surroundings scenery C: Standing on this issue? All drivers
need to be aware of distracted driving and take steps to minimize the risk to themselves and others. "I'm asking you today to listen to the statistics and
the stories and decide for yourself whether that one text message, is worth the cost of a human life." II. Supporting Facts #1 A: While distracted... Show

C: Conclusion about this detail: It is very important to first acknowledge the dangerous impact of this distraction's alarming statistics that shows about
the safety of driving while texting. Many people don't see and think about the consequences that can occur in this situation. More and more companies
are implementing new strategies, for instance, signing a pledge not to use the phone while on the road, and these new changes are adding more
responsible drivers. But it is still not enough to say that we have gained control over the problem. V: Conclusion: Therefore according to the facts and
statistics that were shown previously, people that are still texting while driving might think that they can juggle these big frames of steel they drive
every day, with devices like their cell phones without paying the price, are greatly mistaken! First off, no one can say that texting while driving is not
one if not the most dangerous action one can do behind a motorized vehicle. What can refute that problem that seems all around us whether commuting
or not. Consequently due to the nature of the cell phone use while behind the wheel drivers should not have permission under any circumstance to text
while driving. Regardless of the stance every individual takes on this matter, people need to realize the importance of this issue and implement the
good driving behaviors. As

Text Messaging Is A Problem At School
Since the rise of the internet in the 1990s, and the sending of the first text message in 1992, technology has rapidly become essential to our lives in the
21st century. Our generation relies on phones to communicate instead of just talking in person or writing a letter. People are so connected to the
internet that we forget all the little things that matter around us. Some say that it does have an impact on literacy, and others believe that it does not
and that it is simply just another form of the English language. The biggest problem is that text messaging is a problem at school. Slang is damaging
students' writing and teachers are worried that children will bring slang words into the classroom and their writing. Text messaging has become
detrimental to academic literacy. Cellphones have become one of the necessities in todays modern lifestyle for every teenager and adult. People
depend on cell phones for accomplishing their day to day activities in their professional and personal lives. Everyday over 5 billion text messages are
sent. People are so engaged in sending things to their friends at a rapid speed. People walk around with their fingers glued to their phones and not
caring about anything else in the world. Phones are causing this fear that "text messaging language" will soon replace the standard English language
and young people will become unable to use the language properly. Most Americans (adults and students) cannot go without their cell phones for

Text Messaging
Text messaging is a very controversial subject in our society, possibly even in other cultures. Some complain that texting is overused and abused
while others praise the most recent developments and upgrades of texting. The pervasive use of text messaging in today's society has many facets;
however, the bad is said to outweigh the good. Any individual's perspective on the issue will most likely depend on their age group or social class. For
example, a fifteen year old would appreciate the convenience and speed of text messaging but a fifty year old would most likely not need the texting
function on their cell phone; therefore, the speed and convenience of text messaging would become irrelevant. Mobile–based coordination, as Ling calls

The scarcity of understanding among the groups can cause tension, fighting, and even resentment. The majority of text message conversations are
built on forming a response as soon as you can. No one really notices that the hidden idea behind this general statement can actually lead to a need
for instant gratification. Not only does this "necessity" cause severe impatience, it also causes an absence of attention to many things such as school
or one's communal life. When I text during a math or science class where something has to be explained in steps, I lose all of my focus and do not
understand what the teacher is explaining. This most likely occurs in other types of situations such as business meetings or even dinner dates. Texting
while driving has become the most prevalent cause of traffic accidents in America today. "The general finding here is that the mobile telephone
increases reaction time and that it demands that better could be afforded driving" (Ling 49). Those who take the risk of texting and driving have a
subconscious belief that they can avoid a car accident even though they are more focused on the cell phone rather than driving. This belief has killed
approximately 2,600 people a year and caused six percent of all traffic accidents (txtresponsibly.org). Lawmakers saw the consequences of these actions
and banned texting while driving in Washington D.C. and 34 states. University of Utah conducted a

Writing For The Instant Messaging And Text Messaging...
Another reason it is essential to place an emphasis on creative writing in the classroom is because of today's rapidly developing society. As the world
has become so technologically advanced, there have become more and more ways for people to use written communication to express their thoughts.
Where there was once snail mail and emails, now things have become as instantaneous as a text message or Tweet. Since people seem to write with
such haste and almost carelessness today, it is important for students to be provided with slower paced writing exploration in the classroom. In "Writing
for the Instant Messaging and Text Messaging Generation: Using New Literacies to Support Writing Instruction," Sheelah M. Sweeney states,
"Teachers may be concerned about the way some students write [...] imagining the potential negative impact on their students' academic writing, but
this interest can be an instructional advantage" (Sweeney, 2010, p. 121). While naturally there may be cause for concern with the way students can
erroneously communicate so quickly through the written word, the unease teachers may have will actually be a good thing for students if these
educators move forward with awareness instead of ignorance. Technology is one aspect of society that will not be regressing in the future, and the best
way educators can adapt to this is by incorporating these advancements into the education of students in years to come.

Text Messaging: Article Analysis
Mobile communication such as the use of cell phones have created an age of instant accessibility, with the main source of communication being via
text messaging. Text messaging is a growing trend with young adults. College students use texting more than any other form of telecommunication and
consider it to be an essential part of their social lives. (Murdock, 2013) The rise of text messaging has come about so quickly that few have stopped to

unintended consequences in the results found by Murdock, showing higher than anticipated negative impact on wellbeing. A longitudinal study of
college students would be helpful in weeding out anomalies that might skew results. As the students adjust to college life it would be useful to see how
texting helps or hinders the wellbeing of the students. The results from a longitudinal study could help new college students in regulating stressors in

Adolescents Text Messaging: Article Analysis

how there is a strong connection between adolescent's behaviour and traits on and offline. Researchers pick one–seventy–five 15–year–old adolescents,

The author's main focus is to navigate if there is a link between cyberbullying (mostly caused by cell phones and computers) affecting victims or the
bully's self–esteem in a negative or positive way. The author pays particular attention if there are external factors which leads to cyberbullying such
as beliefs, personal values and interpersonal conflicts. The author uses an effective method to find a correlation between the two factors. A survey is
given out to a random sample of 1963 students from 30 middle schools in the United States to adolescents between grade 6 to grade 8 which included
their age, gender and race. The students had to fill out a survey of 10 questions which would determine youth's self–esteem levels. Moreover, after
finding out the results of self–esteem levels among the youth, two other surveys were given out which would help the authors get a clear view of the
link between cyberbullying and self esteem. First survey is about prevalence and type of cyberbullying victimisation which would address about
the youth's experience as a victim. The next survey is about prevalence and type of cyberbullying offending which would give the results for being
a bully. I believe this was an effective method used by the authors because it asked various questions and covered various topics in its survey, the
authors also used software such as SPSS and alpha level of 0.5 to get a better understanding of the data. The article is objective because the methods
and the results are based on the statistics that were collected and not on personal opinions. This is an useful source because it relates back to my own
topic which is cyberbullying platforms and effects on social relationships. The results of the article would help me build on my own topic by giving

On CNN's website, American University professor Naomi Baron suggests "American society has become sloppy about the mechanics of writing.
Problems arise when people use the casual language in other forms of written communication... when the reader may not be familiar with the casual
language." This type of written language strays from the traditional academia writing we are used to reading. Just like with any new language, if you're
not familiar with the words, it will be difficult to understand.
Sven Birkerts suggests in his essay "Into the Electronic Millennium" that "our students are less and less able to read, analyze, and write with clarity
and purpose... Everything they meet within the world around them gives the signal: That was then, and electronic communications are now" (63).
Terms like BRB and LOL were not covered in the style manuals (William Strunk and E.B. White's Elements of Style or Joseph Williams' Style:
Lessons in Clarity and Grace) that we read for class, but for the new generation of students, clarity and purpose in writing involves these short
abbreviated words and sentences. That's what teenagers today grow up with. For example, I was asking a high school sophomore if she could call
one of her teammates, and her response was "she'll be online tonight, I'll just IM her." The use of the standard telephone (with a cord, not a cell phone)

Text Messaging Affecting Literacy
Outline
Introduction
Text messaging has become a very popular way to communicate for teenagers and it seems to be altering the literacy of teens and also affecting the
way they speak.
Text messaging has lead to many teenagers to become iliterate. With more teens resorting to texts and emails to communicate with others the literacy is
changing over time.
The impact that text messaging has on literacy of teens is important because the generations will slowly become more reliant on the texting slang. As
the literacy decreases due to the texts and emails each generation will slowly create a new view of what literacy is.

Teenagers use texting as their main way to communicate which forces away face to face talking and the requirement of using the correct way to read
write and speak.
The way teenagers speak such as saying acronyms in conversations and abbreviations for words out loud is proof that the grammar used to text is
affecting the words we use for communication.
Speaking to people of importance or even just a family friend would require you to have literacy skills so that they can understand what you are saying
but the generations to come may form a new thought of the requirements of what literacy is.
Conclusion
It is becoming evident that the way teenagers read write and speak is being impacted by the percentages rising of the numbers of text messages that are
being sent by teens daily.
The use of autocorrect that allows teens to not have to know how to correctly spell, cyber slang, and also the way texting creates a barrier from how

Text Messaging : The Enemy Or No Big Deal?
TXTNG – NME or NBD?
"IYO TXTNG = NME or NBD?" Translation: "In your opinion, is text messaging the enemy or no big deal?" As more and more students immerse
themselves in a new language that they use over their cell phones and Blackberries, a number of educators worry that the writing skills of their
students are suffering (Ring, 2006). However, other educators see little evidence that the language of texting is having a negative impact on students '
schoolwork. Is the prevalence of text messaging something to worry about? Should educators fear the use of texting in their classrooms? WDYT? For
you old–timers, that means: what do you think? This paper will discuss the negative aspects associated with text messaging or texting as it is
commonly known, the scope of this practice in current schools, and how this seemingly negative phenomenon can be used in a positive manner.
Texting, a modern scourge?
Texting refers to the use of abbreviations and other techniques to craft short–messaging service (SMS) and instant messages. Texting seldom follows
the standard rules of English grammar or usual word spellings. Short–message format routinely sacrifices grammar, syntax, and punctuation for the
sake of slang and brevity (Baggott, 2006). According to Vosloo (2009), texting is so pervasive that some regard it as an emerging language in its own
right. This is largely due to the proliferation of mobile phones as well as internet–based instant messaging (IM). As a result of their

The primary purpose of the present research was to gain a better understanding of how text messaging has affected adolescent (teenagers)
communication skills. This study focuses on some of the effects and likely problems arising out of the use of these text messaging. Texting is the
preferred mode of contact for nearly all social and communication activities, socialization and self–expression of the adolescents. They are also the
quickest to adopt text messaging. In today's world everyone in and around us are using mobile phones every day. Children today are receiving cell
phones at an age as young as eight years old; more than 35 percent of children in second and third grade have their own mobile phone. Because of
this, the texting language is integrated into the way that students think from an earlier age than ever before. They shorten words by using symbols to
represent the word or symbols whose name sounds like a syllable of the word such as 2day or b4. This is commonly used in other languages as well.
This study will examine that whether texting SMS will impact on language and writing skills of the teenagers and their social lives, and other related

Text Messaging : An Integral Part Of Society
Remember the days when people only used their cell phones in case of emergency? Those days are long gone now, as many people can't seem to go
a second without their phones. This is, in part, due to the invention of text messaging and its continued increase in usage over the past decade or so.
The creation of all these different texting apps, such as WhatsApp, Viber, etc., has made texting very easily accessible, even to those who can't afford
cell phones. For instance, some of these apps, such as iMessage and textPlus, are free and can be downloaded through any Apple device, including
iPads and iPods. Text messaging is now an integral part of society, as it has become one of the main forms of communication over the last few years,
being used even more frequently than calling. In spite of popular belief, the increase in the use of text messaging has led to a socially ruined society,
in which people seem to almost have forgotten how to properly communicate and how to interact with one another. One way in which the increase in
text messaging has ruined society is with the change in the type of language people use when they are texting. This has, in turn, lowered many
people's IQ, by causing everyone's spelling and grammar skills to decline substantially. Shortening words such as "you" to "u", skipping commas and
periods, and using abbreviations such as "smh" or "lol" (even when they're not actually laughing) are just some examples of the ways texting language
has evolved.

The result verified that there is evidence of a decline in grammar scores based on the number of abbreviations in their sent and received text messages
(Swayne and Messer). In other words, the word abbreviations and punctuation short–cuts that famously used in text messaging can alter individuals'
ability to recognize and apply proper spelling, grammar and punctuation techniques in writing and daily life communication. If the uses of
abbreviations are not controlled from the beginning, both sender and receiver of text messaging will be associated with how poorly they will perform
on the test based on the level of standard literacy they have.
Nevertheless, not all researchers think alike, some of them will probably dispute the contradict claim such as what Dr. Clare Wood; Reader in
Developmental Psychology at Coventry University has said in her article, "We were surprised to learn that not only was the association strong, but
that textism use was actually driving the development of phonological awareness and reading skill in children. Texting also appears to be a valuable
form of contact with written English for many children, which enables them to practice reading and spelling on a daily basis (Plester and Wood)."

It is expected that on average, teens send fifty texts a day as compared to ten for adults (Gross). In years to come, the percentage of adults who text
will equal that percentage of teens, having risen in the past year from sixty–five percent to seventy–two percent (Text Message Marketing Service).
One positive effect that text messaging has on our society is the ability to communicate with others instantly. It allows parents and teens to contact each
other more efficiently without the fear of interrupting or disturbing the recipient if they are at a place where they cannot accept a phone call. Accepting
a phone call can be time consuming and requires an environment that enables the receiver to talk, whereas texting is usually short and to the point and
can be done anywhere (Galloway–Shoemaker). Text messaging, therefore, allows the recipient to respond to the sender at their convenience (Gray).
Also, text messaging helps people stay in constant, immediate touch with one another, regardless of location and whether the text is important business
or simply social. In an article, Amanda Knowles mentioned, "The ability to send text messages gives teens and parents the convenience of simple

of their teen's activities and whereabouts." This is extremely useful

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Text messaging is the most widely used data appliance in the world, with 2.4 billion users, or 74% of all mobile phone
subscribers (Tedeschi, 2008). Market analysis reveals that consumers purchase phone applications readily because it is effortless to download an
application onto their mobile phone and also since cash out of pocket is not required, it simply gets added to their phone bill. Teenagers represent the
largest spectrum of these consumers, who are eager to show off the stunning features of their new phone to their peers. Parents typically pay the cost
of their cell phone plans and typically are unaware of small charges made on the account. Most phone application downloads range from free demos to
$9.99 pricing. As this venture is maintained via the internet and cell phone, little to no overhead is required. Most of the costs of goods sold are

At&T Wireless: Text Messaging

1. Describe the cost behavior in the wireless industry. What are the implications of this cost behavior for cost–volume–profit (CVP) relationships?
The term cost behavior is used to describe whether a cost changes as output changes. In this case the costs are tightly shielded. In order to describe the
cost behavior of the industry, we have to study the process that results in cost incurrence. Based on the information in the AT&T case, the industry
features a high proportion of fixed costs in relation to acquiring spectrum and building a network. Variable costs are relatively low and, in the case of

How strong a relationship should exist between the prices charged to a customer for a good or service and the cost of providing that good or service?
We think that companies should calculate their break–even point for their goods and services and to charge the prices according to that figure. This
way, they can make sure that their price covers their expenses. In case of AT&T'stext messaging they are charging much more than the cost. But
because there are only four national carriers in United States and they control 90 percent of the market, and text messaging had become widely
popular, they can afford high prices. They are considering the demand of the service and pricing the product according to demand and supply.
5. Why is the price that AT&T charges to transmit a kilobyte of data via text message so much higher than the price charged to transmit a kilobyte of
data via a Smartphone?
The fastest growing wireless industry is text messaging. This also reflects the earlier comment that demand for messaging far exceeds supply,
therefore driving prices up. Even though it costs less to transmit a text message than data, it is still seen as a very low cost to the average customer.
The customer feels like they are getting a good deal because they are using the text messaging more than the data

and force someone they know to quit smoking cigarettes.
Text Messaging As ASmoking Cessation Method
Over the past decade, text messaging has become one of the most affordable and easily accessible form of communication. Along with the earlier
mentioned growing number of young adults using tobacco products. These can go hand in hand due to the fact that text messaging can be used to
promote healthy behavior to a huge amount of the U. S. population. Around 98% of the population has text messaging on their phones. thus a text
based smoking cessation program can not only be cost effective, but can also provide interactive personalized counseling to a young college student.
Text messaging smoking cessation programs can make this one–on–one counseling much easier since of the 70% of smokers that want to quit, only
51% actually meet with a physician to seek that type of help to attempt to quit.
Most of these text messaging smoking cessation programs consist of motivational messages three to five times a day, that usually has a personalized
goal with a timeline. These programs keep you consciously aware of these goals throughout your day to hold the participant accountable.

Linguists Mixed On Effects Of Text Messaging On Students
Smartphones are influencing the behaviors and the way of thinking of users worldwide. Language, for example, is affected by smartphones due to text
messaging. A user's writing and speech can be changed because of the usage of abbreviated words and shortcuts. Specifically, text messaging impacts
students in the classroom because it establishes a trend, enforces disorganized thoughts in written communication, and the use of word abbreviations
and shortcuts are used in a daily basis. Text messaging creates a craze in a specific way of using communication in writing and in speech. It establishes
lingos that should not be used in one's academic life. As stated by Naomi Baron in Linguists Mixed on Effects of Text Messaging, "Problems arise

premature birth, stillbirth, perinatal death, neonatal death and low birth weight. As in the rest of the world, mobile phone applications and text

Difference between Text Messaging and Abbreviations
Social media sites such as Twitter only allow a limit of 140 character per tweet. This limits the amount of words you can use in a tweet. This forces
the users to get their ideas across in the shortest way possible. For many, this results in the use of text talk. This is a type of shorthand and it
creates a whole new language consisting of abbreviations. LOL, BRB, SMH and TTYL are a few examples of the abbreviations from this text
talk language, theses terms are used every day amongst teens. These text terms add more to a sentence and in text more then just a simple
abbreviation for a word or phrase. Abbreviations as short has three letters can add a whole new tone to what is said over a text massage. LOL
(laugh out loud) for example is used to add a joking or playful tone to a messages "almost like a type of punctuation" and in some cases it replaces a
punctuation. This abbreviation doesn't always indicate literal laughter either. This is how text talk and normal abbreviations vary. Text talk is surly

question is how does this writing form change the way we communicate with people. We no longer have to ride on horse back for miles just to

Over the last decade, text messaging has evolved from a new way to communicate, to a primary form of communication, specifically among teens and
young adults (Reardon, 2008). The popularity of texting has shown overtime, that certain people may even have a preference for non–verbal
communication. Although text messaging is convenient in many ways, it can have negative impacts on communication and the people using it. These
impacts can be minor, such as a small miscommunication, or major, by effecting the way we socialize as humans, with emotion and tone (Chaney,

In this example, there were no issues with the sender, since the only people involved in the conversation were my mother and I and we were the
only senders and recipients of any text messages (Hahn, 2014). The first important issue that led to the miscommunication would be encoding
(Hahn, 2014). My mother took the lack of response and felt that I intended to ignore her because I was possibly mad. I was really just busy at the
time and did not have a spare moment to respond back. To avoid this, my response could have been sooner in order to relieve my mother's worry.
The message is the second area where there could have been an issue (Hahn, 2014). The message itself could have been too short and may have
ended too abruptly for my mom to realize that there were no underlying meanings behind the one I actually had sent. It would have been a better
choice to explain that I was about to get my daughter ready for bed, so she would know why I wouldn't be responding right

Text Messaging And Persuasive Speech Outline

  • 1. Text Messaging and Persuasive Speech Outline Persuasive Speech Outline on "Texting while driving" March 21st, 2013 I. Introduction A. The main premise of my argument is that no one for whatever reason should be texting while driving. B: Defining the issue: Distracted driving while texting 1. Texting and driving 2. Lack of concentration, losing focus on driving 3. Looking at texts and not paying attention to the surroundings scenery C: Standing on this issue? All drivers need to be aware of distracted driving and take steps to minimize the risk to themselves and others. "I'm asking you today to listen to the statistics and the stories and decide for yourself whether that one text message, is worth the cost of a human life." II. Supporting Facts #1 A: While distracted... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... C: Conclusion about this detail: It is very important to first acknowledge the dangerous impact of this distraction's alarming statistics that shows about the safety of driving while texting. Many people don't see and think about the consequences that can occur in this situation. More and more companies are implementing new strategies, for instance, signing a pledge not to use the phone while on the road, and these new changes are adding more responsible drivers. But it is still not enough to say that we have gained control over the problem. V: Conclusion: Therefore according to the facts and statistics that were shown previously, people that are still texting while driving might think that they can juggle these big frames of steel they drive every day, with devices like their cell phones without paying the price, are greatly mistaken! First off, no one can say that texting while driving is not one if not the most dangerous action one can do behind a motorized vehicle. What can refute that problem that seems all around us whether commuting or not. Consequently due to the nature of the cell phone use while behind the wheel drivers should not have permission under any circumstance to text while driving. Regardless of the stance every individual takes on this matter, people need to realize the importance of this issue and implement the good driving behaviors. As ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Text Messaging Is A Problem At School Since the rise of the internet in the 1990s, and the sending of the first text message in 1992, technology has rapidly become essential to our lives in the 21st century. Our generation relies on phones to communicate instead of just talking in person or writing a letter. People are so connected to the internet that we forget all the little things that matter around us. Some say that it does have an impact on literacy, and others believe that it does not and that it is simply just another form of the English language. The biggest problem is that text messaging is a problem at school. Slang is damaging students' writing and teachers are worried that children will bring slang words into the classroom and their writing. Text messaging has become detrimental to academic literacy. Cellphones have become one of the necessities in todays modern lifestyle for every teenager and adult. People depend on cell phones for accomplishing their day to day activities in their professional and personal lives. Everyday over 5 billion text messages are sent. People are so engaged in sending things to their friends at a rapid speed. People walk around with their fingers glued to their phones and not caring about anything else in the world. Phones are causing this fear that "text messaging language" will soon replace the standard English language and young people will become unable to use the language properly. Most Americans (adults and students) cannot go without their cell phones for ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. Text Messaging Text messaging is a very controversial subject in our society, possibly even in other cultures. Some complain that texting is overused and abused while others praise the most recent developments and upgrades of texting. The pervasive use of text messaging in today's society has many facets; however, the bad is said to outweigh the good. Any individual's perspective on the issue will most likely depend on their age group or social class. For example, a fifteen year old would appreciate the convenience and speed of text messaging but a fifty year old would most likely not need the texting function on their cell phone; therefore, the speed and convenience of text messaging would become irrelevant. Mobile–based coordination, as Ling calls ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The scarcity of understanding among the groups can cause tension, fighting, and even resentment. The majority of text message conversations are built on forming a response as soon as you can. No one really notices that the hidden idea behind this general statement can actually lead to a need for instant gratification. Not only does this "necessity" cause severe impatience, it also causes an absence of attention to many things such as school or one's communal life. When I text during a math or science class where something has to be explained in steps, I lose all of my focus and do not understand what the teacher is explaining. This most likely occurs in other types of situations such as business meetings or even dinner dates. Texting while driving has become the most prevalent cause of traffic accidents in America today. "The general finding here is that the mobile telephone increases reaction time and that it demands that better could be afforded driving" (Ling 49). Those who take the risk of texting and driving have a subconscious belief that they can avoid a car accident even though they are more focused on the cell phone rather than driving. This belief has killed approximately 2,600 people a year and caused six percent of all traffic accidents (txtresponsibly.org). Lawmakers saw the consequences of these actions and banned texting while driving in Washington D.C. and 34 states. University of Utah conducted a ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Writing For The Instant Messaging And Text Messaging... Another reason it is essential to place an emphasis on creative writing in the classroom is because of today's rapidly developing society. As the world has become so technologically advanced, there have become more and more ways for people to use written communication to express their thoughts. Where there was once snail mail and emails, now things have become as instantaneous as a text message or Tweet. Since people seem to write with such haste and almost carelessness today, it is important for students to be provided with slower paced writing exploration in the classroom. In "Writing for the Instant Messaging and Text Messaging Generation: Using New Literacies to Support Writing Instruction," Sheelah M. Sweeney states, "Teachers may be concerned about the way some students write [...] imagining the potential negative impact on their students' academic writing, but this interest can be an instructional advantage" (Sweeney, 2010, p. 121). While naturally there may be cause for concern with the way students can erroneously communicate so quickly through the written word, the unease teachers may have will actually be a good thing for students if these educators move forward with awareness instead of ignorance. Technology is one aspect of society that will not be regressing in the future, and the best way educators can adapt to this is by incorporating these advancements into the education of students in years to come. This article states that instead of shunning ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 5. Text Messaging: Article Analysis Mobile communication such as the use of cell phones have created an age of instant accessibility, with the main source of communication being via text messaging. Text messaging is a growing trend with young adults. College students use texting more than any other form of telecommunication and consider it to be an essential part of their social lives. (Murdock, 2013) The rise of text messaging has come about so quickly that few have stopped to ask how is this always available status and high levels of texting effecting one's wellbeing. In the article, Texting While Stressed: Implication for Students' Burnout, Sleep and Wellbeing, author Karla Klein Murdock of Washington and LeeUniversity, studied a sample of college students to answer just ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Having the expectation that one has to be available can add undue stress. I found it interesting that Murdock chose first year college students as a sample group considering the first year of college comes with its own stressors that can affect levels of cell phone use. I feel that this may have unintended consequences in the results found by Murdock, showing higher than anticipated negative impact on wellbeing. A longitudinal study of college students would be helpful in weeding out anomalies that might skew results. As the students adjust to college life it would be useful to see how texting helps or hinders the wellbeing of the students. The results from a longitudinal study could help new college students in regulating stressors in their life and having healthy texting habits. Over all this study is good starting point for future research into the healthfulness of texting in an age of being highly ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 6. 2b And We Never Talk Anymore: The Problem With Text Messaging Today, from toddler to senior citizen uses phone. The most used applicable applications in phone are the text or SMS. I wonder how many people even know what does SMS stands for. We use the short message service to communicate easily because it's short and quick. The two articles "2b or not 2b" by David Crystal and "We Never Talk Anymore: The Problem withText Messaging" by Jeffrey Kluger both talks about communicating through texting and our use of language. Crystal is in favor for texting and Kluger is against texting. I agree with Kluger when it comes to this topic, I feel learning how to have a conversation face to face is very important. "I talk to kids and they describe their fear of conversation," says Turkle. "An 18–year–old I interviewed ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 9. Adolescents Text Messaging: Article Analysis Article 1 The Blackberry Project: Capturing the Content of Adolescents' Text Messaging The authors examines different communication techniques which leads to cyberbullying through their methods by using different applications to help them understand why is cyberbullying still taking place. The authors' purpose of this study is to determine the relations between adolescent's electronic communication (text messaging) and their social life and how there is a strong connection between adolescent's behaviour and traits on and offline. Researchers pick one–seventy–five 15–year–old adolescents, 81 girls and 94 boys from various cultures: African American, Caucasian, and Hispanic. The family income was also taken into consideration while doing this... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The author's main focus is to navigate if there is a link between cyberbullying (mostly caused by cell phones and computers) affecting victims or the bully's self–esteem in a negative or positive way. The author pays particular attention if there are external factors which leads to cyberbullying such as beliefs, personal values and interpersonal conflicts. The author uses an effective method to find a correlation between the two factors. A survey is given out to a random sample of 1963 students from 30 middle schools in the United States to adolescents between grade 6 to grade 8 which included their age, gender and race. The students had to fill out a survey of 10 questions which would determine youth's self–esteem levels. Moreover, after finding out the results of self–esteem levels among the youth, two other surveys were given out which would help the authors get a clear view of the link between cyberbullying and self esteem. First survey is about prevalence and type of cyberbullying victimisation which would address about the youth's experience as a victim. The next survey is about prevalence and type of cyberbullying offending which would give the results for being a bully. I believe this was an effective method used by the authors because it asked various questions and covered various topics in its survey, the authors also used software such as SPSS and alpha level of 0.5 to get a better understanding of the data. The article is objective because the methods and the results are based on the statistics that were collected and not on personal opinions. This is an useful source because it relates back to my own topic which is cyberbullying platforms and effects on social relationships. The results of the article would help me build on my own topic by giving me a clear view on how cyberbullying affects youth's self–esteem and affect ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 10. Text Messaging Enhances Language Essay Text Messaging Enhances Language My younger brother sits as his computer everyday after work to "talk" to his friends through America Online (AOL) Instant Messaging (IM). They use terms like BRB (be right back) and LOL (laugh out loud) that seem a little confusing to the "out–dated" older sibling. It amazes me that he can carry on a conversation using abbreviations for virtually every word or phrase. It doesn't even bother him anymore that I peek over his shoulder to see what they're "talking" about, because he knows it's foreign to me and I can't understand it anyway. As I watch my younger brother on the computer at night, I realize that our habits of reading and writing are changing through modern computer technology like instant ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... On CNN's website, American University professor Naomi Baron suggests "American society has become sloppy about the mechanics of writing. Problems arise when people use the casual language in other forms of written communication... when the reader may not be familiar with the casual language." This type of written language strays from the traditional academia writing we are used to reading. Just like with any new language, if you're not familiar with the words, it will be difficult to understand. Sven Birkerts suggests in his essay "Into the Electronic Millennium" that "our students are less and less able to read, analyze, and write with clarity and purpose... Everything they meet within the world around them gives the signal: That was then, and electronic communications are now" (63). Terms like BRB and LOL were not covered in the style manuals (William Strunk and E.B. White's Elements of Style or Joseph Williams' Style: Lessons in Clarity and Grace) that we read for class, but for the new generation of students, clarity and purpose in writing involves these short abbreviated words and sentences. That's what teenagers today grow up with. For example, I was asking a high school sophomore if she could call one of her teammates, and her response was "she'll be online tonight, I'll just IM her." The use of the standard telephone (with a cord, not a cell phone) is outdated. IM and its' ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 11. Text Messaging Affecting Literacy Outline Introduction Text messaging has become a very popular way to communicate for teenagers and it seems to be altering the literacy of teens and also affecting the way they speak. Text messaging has lead to many teenagers to become iliterate. With more teens resorting to texts and emails to communicate with others the literacy is changing over time. The impact that text messaging has on literacy of teens is important because the generations will slowly become more reliant on the texting slang. As the literacy decreases due to the texts and emails each generation will slowly create a new view of what literacy is. Literacy is affected by different aspects of texting. The things that effect it include the access texting gives you to autocorrect,... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Teenagers use texting as their main way to communicate which forces away face to face talking and the requirement of using the correct way to read write and speak. The way teenagers speak such as saying acronyms in conversations and abbreviations for words out loud is proof that the grammar used to text is affecting the words we use for communication. Speaking to people of importance or even just a family friend would require you to have literacy skills so that they can understand what you are saying but the generations to come may form a new thought of the requirements of what literacy is. Conclusion It is becoming evident that the way teenagers read write and speak is being impacted by the percentages rising of the numbers of text messages that are being sent by teens daily. The use of autocorrect that allows teens to not have to know how to correctly spell, cyber slang, and also the way texting creates a barrier from how they speak are all affecting the literacy that is needed for ...

However, other educators see little evidence that the language of texting is having a negative impact on students ' schoolwork. Is the prevalence of text messaging something to worry about?

Texting, a modern scourge? Texting refers to the use of abbreviations and other techniques to craft short–messaging service (SMS) and instant messages. Texting seldom follows the standard rules of English grammar or usual word spellings. Short–message format routinely sacrifices grammar, syntax, and punctuation for the sake of slang and brevity (Baggott, 2006).

  • 14. Text Messaging : An Integral Part Of Society Remember the days when people only used their cell phones in case of emergency? Those days are long gone now, as many people can't seem to go a second without their phones. This is, in part, due to the invention of text messaging and its continued increase in usage over the past decade or so. The creation of all these different texting apps, such as WhatsApp, Viber, etc., has made texting very easily accessible, even to those who can't afford cell phones. For instance, some of these apps, such as iMessage and textPlus, are free and can be downloaded through any Apple device, including iPads and iPods. Text messaging is now an integral part of society, as it has become one of the main forms of communication over the last few years, being used even more frequently than calling. In spite of popular belief, the increase in the use of text messaging has led to a socially ruined society, in which people seem to almost have forgotten how to properly communicate and how to interact with one another. One way in which the increase in text messaging has ruined society is with the change in the type of language people use when they are texting. This has, in turn, lowered many people's IQ, by causing everyone's spelling and grammar skills to decline substantially. Shortening words such as "you" to "u", skipping commas and periods, and using abbreviations such as "smh" or "lol" (even when they're not actually laughing) are just some examples of the ways texting language has evolved. ...

Over the years, texting has developed into an exceedingly popular trend that the majority of Americans owning cellular phones use today.Text messaging has definitely made a tremendous impact on our society, both positively and negatively.

It is expected that on average, teens send fifty texts a day as compared to ten for adults (Gross). In years to come, the percentage of adults who text will equal that percentage of teens, having risen in the past year from sixty–five percent to seventy–two percent (Text Message Marketing Service). One positive effect that text messaging has on our society is the ability to communicate with others instantly.

Accepting a phone call can be time consuming and requires an environment that enables the receiver to talk, whereas texting is usually short and to the point and can be done anywhere (Galloway–Shoemaker). Text messaging, therefore, allows the recipient to respond to the sender at their convenience (Gray). Also, text messaging helps people stay in constant, immediate touch with one another, regardless of location and whether the text is important business or simply social. In an article, Amanda Knowles mentioned, "The ability to send text messages gives teens and parents the convenience of simple communication.
