FOCUS:

Fast nur SMS-Abkürzungen im Aufsatz

In Großbritannien hat ein im SMS-Stil verfasster Schul-Aufsatz für großes Entsetzen in der Lehrerschaft gesorgt. Die Pädagogen sehen auf Grund des mit SMS-Abkürzungen durchzogenen Werkes die Rechtschreibe-Fähigkeiten britischer Schüler in Gefahr, wie der „Daily Telegraph“ am Montag berichtete.

„Ich konnte nicht glauben, was ich da sah“, zitierte das Blatt einen Pädagogen. Dieser hatte von einem 13-jährigen Schüler einen Aufsatz im Stil der per Mobiltelefon verbreiteten SMS-Kurzmitteilungen erhalten. „Die Seite war voll mit Hieroglyphen, von denen ich viele schlichtweg nicht übersetzen konnte.“

Der Schüler hatte seinen Aufsatz nahezu vollständig mit meist lautmalerischen Abkürzungen begonnen, die bei einer SMS üblich sind. Der Aufsatz enthielt auch Buchstabenkombinationen wie „ILNY“, übersetzt: „I love New York“ (Ich liebe New York). Das Blatt zitierte eine Mitarbeiterin einer Bildungsinitiative, die sagte, der zunehmende Verfall der Rechtschreibe-und Grammatik-Kenntnisse britischer Schüler sei teilweise auf den SMS-Wahn der Jugendlichen zurückzuführen.

-->Girl writes English essay in phone text shorthand

By Auslan Cramb, Scottish Correspondent
(Filed: 03/03/2003)


Education experts warned yesterday of the potentially damaging effect on literacy of mobile phone text messaging after a pupil handed in an essay written in text shorthand.

The 13-year-old girl submitted the essay to a teacher in a state secondary school in the west of Scotland and explained that she found it"easier than standard English".

Her teacher, who asked not to be named, said:"I could not believe what I was seeing. The page was riddled with hieroglyphics, many of which I simply could not translate."

The Scottish Qualifications Authority has expressed concern about the problem in its report on last year's Standard Grade exams, and revealed that"text messaging language was inappropriately used" in the English exam.

Judith Gillespie, of the Scottish Parent Teacher Council, said a decline in standards of grammar and written language was partly linked to the craze."There must be rigorous efforts from all quarters of the education system to stamp out the use of texting as a form of written language so far as English study is concerned.

"There has been a trend in recent years to emphasise spoken English. Pupils think orally and write phonetically. You would be shocked at the numbers of senior secondary pupils who cannot distinguish between their and there. The problem is that there is a feeling in some schools that pupils' freedom of expression should not be inhibited."

Dr Cynthia McVey, a psychology lecturer at Glasgow Caledonian University, said texting was second nature to a generation of young people."They don't write letters, so sitting down to write or type an essay is unusual and difficult. They revert to what they feel comfortable with - texting is attractive and uncomplicated."

The teenager's essay began:"My smmr hols wr CWOT. B4, we usd 2go2 NY 2C my bro, his GF & thr 3:- kds FTF. ILNY, it's a gr8 plc." Translation:"My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York, it's a great place."

"... Aber meine Eltern waren so betroffen wegen 9/11, daß sie beschlossen, die nächsten zwei Wochen in <font size=-1>?SCO?</font> zu bleiben. <font size=-1>(den nächsten Satz kann ich nicht erklären)</font> Ich war sehr gelangweilt in <font size=-1>?MON?</font>? wegen?? Nachher waren meine Eltern recht glücklich. Sie meinten, ich würde mich irren, und daß sie sich wegen der friedlichen Ruhe wohlfühlten. Ich glaube das nicht! Ich wollte so schnell wie möglich nach Hause, um meine <font size=-1>?M8 heist normalerweise Might, Macht... wahrscheinlich Mädchen, maids?</font> wiederzusehen.

"My summer holidays were a complete waste of time. Before, we used to go to New York to see my brother, his girlfriend and their three screaming kids face to face. I love New York, it's a great place.

But my parents were so worried because of the terrorism attack on September 11 that they decided we would stay in Scotland and spend two weeks up north.

Up north, what you see is what you get - nothing. I was extremely bored in the middle of nowhere. Nothing but sheep and mountains.

At any rate, my parents were happy. They said that it could be worse, and that they were happy with the peace and quiet. I don't think so! I wanted to go home as soon as possible, to see my mates again.

Today I came back to school. I feel very saintly because I have done all my homework. Now it's business as usual..."

And this is what it means once it's translated into English:
