Texting, or text messaging, refers to the use of mobile phones to type and send brief, electronic messages over a telephone network. Because such messages are limited to 160 characters and are typed on a small phone keypad, texters tend to employ a great many abbreviations in conveying their messages. This has led to widespread spelling adaptations, for example, “BRB” (be right back) and “LOL” (laughing out loud). The research in this paper aimed to examine the views and opinions held by teachers about the impact of texting on children’s literacy development.
