  • Students use IM lingo in essays


    • Proof positive that our nation is going to hell in a handbasket. This is pathetic.

    That is so bad I go to my sister's myspace page and have to sit there and translate what she has written, just because I have no idea what the hell the kids are saying these days. Makes me feel old!

    I KNOW! If I were a teacher, those kids would be getting that shit right back to do over.

    I hate people.

    It's nothing but the kids being smartasses. They know better!

    This drives me insane! I teach a class to college freshmen and I see it all the time! How do they get the idea that this is acceptable? Are they allowed to do it in high school? I warn them the first day of class that any assignments turned in using "internet shorthand" will be an automatic failing grade for that assignment. But yet I still see it.

    Pathetic isn't a strong enough word for this! Frightening might be a better one!

    WOW!
