First two articles #5

In today's articles it was said that writing and technology is being used in Purdue University. This technology program is to help struggling students be for it's to late. This university is using a online "signal" that warns students that there grades are low and that they need to do something about it. This technology is used like a traffic light. In which a red light means you have a low or faltering grades, yellow light students are in the middle, and green well everyone knows what that means, the student is doing very well. The students are being encourage to be at the top of the pack. About 11,000 undergraduates will soon be using this signals system. The stoplight will take action in the first few weeks of the semester, said by Wilson Head. Students were saying that it will help a lot more since their classes are so large and that they won't be left out all year. I really think that they should use this method in community colleges. In which we don't have to pay back the money we used to take those classes.

The second article was about how texting interfere with the social world. It was said that texting was vandals the way people were speaking in their every day conversation. It was also said that texting was sad shorthand which masks dyslexia, poor spelling and laziness in a person. People abbreviation is used mostly when the notes are to long or when they want to say a lot just in one text. But some people do really need to abbreviate their words. Only just because the notes are too long and it all needs to be written down all once. As long as your not writing them in an important paper and over looked by experts. If you abbreviate in texting its okay. Well that's my opinion and my point of view. But every one has there own opinion about texting in abbreviation. As long as you understand what the person is saying its all good.
