ICQ and SMS languages--- convenience or corruption
2009
For this topic, we found out what SMS, MSN and ICQ were, their backgrounds, discussed about them in different point of views and furthermore, explored the world of these languages by holding surveys and questionnaires. Through what we did in this website, we wanted to point out that these new languages affect our learning in schools.

Team Collaboration
Our team worked together to complete this project. We divided our work equally according to our personal strengths, such as one of our groupmates which uses the ICQ and SMS language helped us to convey our survey and wrote a paragraph of the language of our website.
Team Diversity
Even though we were all Chinese, but we had a bit different in religion, some of our groupmates were Christians and some of us were Catholics, but it wasn’t actually a problem for us to work together.
