Thought you’d be interested in reading this article
published in the Milwaukee Journal, but originally written 8.10
and published in the Kansas City Star. The article talks about
the gatekeepers: standardized tests, college essays that require standard
English, etc. Many of our digital natives are line sqigglers who fake actual
spellings. My thoughts: I'm guessing that our Title I kids don’t have as many digital
opportunities as kids in more affluent families, but I could be wrong on that. In either case we need to make our students aware that each as its place.
In rush to write, students leave spelling, grammar
behind. Joe Robertson. 8.10.13. The Kansas City Star
