ICQ and SMS Language: Good or Bad, Advantage or Disadvantage?

2009
ICQ and SMS language is now widely used in students' conversations, but are they using it correctly? Should parents forbid their children to enter the ICQ chatroom as ICQ and SMS language may affect their learning? Do students think that ICQ and SMS language affects their daily formal work? Our Thinkquest project tries to answer these questions.
