The information presented here represents the data from internet resources regarding how text messaging affects the elementary and high school students’ learning experiences.

They use inventive spellings and abbreviations in text. Thus, teenager’s writing skills have turned into sentence fragments because of the limited spaces that they put texts into sentence. There is the fear of that this “new language” may replaced the standard English and young people may not be able to use our language properly. When people send text to friends they put “c u l8ter” instead of “see you later”, Texters used this for send message quickly and shortening the words for ease does this. It is clear that as text messaging continues to grow as a favored form of social communication, so will more studies emerge to examine this form of technology more closely.

September 2015 Common Vices of Maritime Education Students in Mariners Polytechnic Colleges Foundation: A Criticism Introduction Teen agers worldwide especially students in colleges have higher rate of having a vices in their life. There is undoubtedly much truth in this view. Large colleges certainly have a large ratio of dissolute or, put it less harshly, wild-students than smaller institutions.

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study The rate of students involved in bad vices such as smoking, hard drinking, gambling and sometimes illegal drugs, addiction in computer games and variety of gadgets are serious problems that need diplomatic actions. There are lots of reasons why the youth nowadays are being involved in bad vices. One of the major reasons per observation is the lack of quality relationship with their parents because a lot of parents are just being parents who provide material and physical needs and forget the needs of their children in terms of the emotional and moral aspects. High School senior students are driven to do bad things just to satisfy themselves with their bad vices, like stealing money from their parents, cutting their classes hours, getting into troubles in the community or even inside the school. These things may lead to even more unlikely things that they may even do notorious things to their people. The child-parent relationship is even gone worse because youths are being more and more stubborn while the parents are losing their temper and patience to understand the situation of their children. Parents tend to become stricter and they are being more authoritative to their children that may lead to a rebellion against them. Parents should not only be simply just a parent, but they also be a best friend to their children. They should spend more quality time with their family, talk to them intimately so they could...

...Vice is a practice or a behavior or habit considered immoral, depraved, or degrading in the associated society. In more minor usage, vice can refer to a fault, a negative character trait, a defect, an infirmity, or merely a bad habit). Vices are habits and activities that are not beneficial to an individual. It usually produces negative consequences- in the physical, emotional, mental and social aspect of a person. The generation today is facing a great ideal of vices like drug addiction, smoking, computer games, social networking, gambling, pre- marital sex, pornography and drinking which has become more accessible to the public. It would suggest that vices are common among these people because of the age proper and the independence from parents.3Vices may inhibit the productivity and further effectiveness of a student, since they take time, concentration and financial resources. 4 Vices that the researchers would want to tackle are alcoholism, smoking , computer games and gambling because these vices are the most common and prevalent among the MMC - CAST students.

I believe that a good employee listens to their supervisors and tries to use their recommendations as best as they can. I think Young was too upset that students were not coming into the clinic, and that anger distorted his thinking. Now Sallie Strong has an abundance of work to do as the new clinic’s director. I would take into consideration the comment Vice President Belmont stated “They are not going to spend long periods of time in a therapist’s office” (Lewis, Lewis, Packard 75).

OLAÑO Subject Teacher Submitted by: CHARISH JOY B. BAYOT 10-EINSTEIN March 2016 HISTORY OF VICES IN TEXAS The history of vice in the U.S. state of Texas has been an important part of the state's past and has greatly influenced its development. Vice activities, such as gambling and prostitution, have historically been a significant facet of both the state's culture and its economy. Law enforcement organizations have traditionally defined vice as including prostitution, gambling, alcohol and narcotics, and pornography. These activities, though always controversial, represented major influences in the state with some enterprises at times holding legendary status. The legal status of the individual activities has fluctuated substantially over time. Additionally during some periods individual communities and public officials have been accepting of many of these activities, even when they were illegal, because of corruption, because the activities were seen as inevitable, or often because the activities were economically important. Early Texas and the Republic of Texas Before the arrival of the European settlers in Texas, the plant peyote (peyotl in Nahuatl) had become a popular hallucinogenic among tribes in the Rio Grande Valley as well as parts of West Texas and Chihuahua.

A student may be influenced to be involved in any of the stated variables. High School is far different from being a college student. A person will have a new life when one goes to college. New environment which one has to adapt, new set of friends which one have to treat nice, and new subjects or topics that one has to study based on what course you will get. Although drinking, smoking, and drug-use for some usually result in adverse health consequences, there are some perceived benefits or advantages of these behaviors particularly from the point of view of the adolescents and youths. Adolescents may view drinking and smoking as privileges of adults and may want to engage in them to feel grown up and to present themselves as adults to others. Some of the reasons given are: the availability of cigarettes at home, parents being model of smoking and drinking behavior and consequently parents lack the credibility as advocates for non-smoking or non-drinking.(Aroyo 2001) Smoking and drinking are two of the most important risk factors explaining early mortality, accounting for an estimated...
