Is texting helping us in English Classes?

Students tell us in the video that instant messaging is actually helping to take better notes and also to help with memorization. Their typing is becoming faster due to texting so much. The students do admit they are getting lazier because of it. The teacher also mentions that all the papers in that class are typed so the spell check helps them with punctuation, capitalization, and spelling. A lot of kids still haven’t learned a lot from classes due to spell check.
