The “New Generation” Or “N Gen”
Young people have grown so  Accustomed to technology that… They can’t Imagine living without it.
Memorization skills have dramatically decreased.
And the beauty of language Seems to have disappeared…
Who needs to read a book When we have                       ?
And who needs an encyclopedia when there’s                    ?
But the world is always changing…
And these “N Geners” are acquiring new skills…
They have advanced technical skills which are very marketable.
Digital gaming has taught: Better hand-eye coordination Faster decision making And better spatial awareness.
Worldwide  communication has caused an increased rate  In tolerance of  multi-cultural acceptance.
So what happens to written text?
How should the younger generation be taught?
With digital media?
What about grammar? Knowing how to spell and use appropriate  Grammar seem like miniscule skills in today’s society.
How are kids supposed to know what to believe? What about  the legitimacy  of all the  Information on the web?
Not to mention  all the inappropriate stuff they can come across on the web.
Basically, the question is…
Is the rapid  increase of  digital technology…
      Enhancing our language?
Ordestroyingit?
