RJ - Show Me The Way
Qns: Do you think SMS and IM have helped or hindered the way you communicate with your classmates?
Ans:
I think SMS and IM have both helped and hindered.
Helped - in some sense that we are bale to communicate things faster to each other. We are able to understand each other's different way of messaging. We are also able to send things such as files and sharing of photo over easily.
Hindered - This is due to the fact that we uses too much of short form. By using short form, we might not be able to get the right meaning. For example, LOL means Laugh out Loud but for some people it may mean Lamer of Lamest. This will result in different response. We might not be able to practice our expressing of words. This is because using of SMS and IM, we do not need to take note of our expression and our action.
Therefore it does hinders the way I communicate with my classmates as I might use the wrong terms or words to communicate with them.
