Disinformation Debate Technology (Through television, texting, social network posting, and the Internet), has contributed to a decrease in literacy skills. Team “HyB” Joshua Justin - Odilon Martin Quan Askew - Yohan Torres - Jody Hatcher
Television • Subliminal messaging • Promotes procrastination. • Impairs vision. Research has linked students who watched too much TV with poor school performance, behavior problem and obesity, said a University of Missouri Extension human development specialist.
Texting • A reason for misuse of grammar and vocabulary. The survey of 228 students in the sixth, seventh and eighth grades, found that those kids who use "techspeak" when they text scored lower on grammar assessment tests.
Social Network Posting • Chain Mail • Information is easily misconstrued. - Encouraging poor grammar, usage, and spelling. - Isolation, individuals are isolated from others, not having the opportunity to practice any of their personal literacy skills.
Internet • Decrease in critical thinking and analysis. • Individuals pay less attention to environment. Reading for pleasure, which has declined among young people in recent decades, enhances thinking and engages the imagination in a way that visual media such as video games and television do not.
