Reading



The reading about text messaging is very interesting for me. Today, people started to worry about literacy and illiteracy of youth because of the text messaging. Young people write their messages with abbreviations, and grammar mistakes. Some researches think that grammar problems of students is not in text messaging, the problem is in schools and teachers. According to the text, young teachers do not have right skills to teach grammar, they even do not know what area and how they should teach. I think illiteracy is a very big problem for our society. We should start to write correctly even if technology has big influence on us. This reading completely changed my view on literacy because I found out that most of people are illiterate. In addition text messaging is a very big problem of communication between people. Before, people had big conversations between each other, now we are only texting messages through new cell phones. We should completely change our way of communication, and stop texting to each other.
