Where did a month wander off to? I really can't say that I exactly know. Sorry for the lack of any posts over the last month. I am now off for summer break, so there should be a sharp increase in posting.
With the internet as it is today, I have found that use of proper English has gone down. With terms such as ‘lol’ and ‘Gr8’ (Although I am guilty of the occasional ‘WTF’), students stop bothering to use the correct sentence structure on the internet. This behavior is starting to creep into the students’ work. If you know the concepts of English well enough to write, but still can’t remember where to use the semicolon, then this website is for you. Titled “Improve Your Writing,” this website will help you tame the jungle of English grammar. It will tell you where and when to use a hyphen, the difference between whose and who’s, and help you to remember where to put quoted material. That’s just the tip of the iceberg!
