As a high school teacher I will tell my students to never rely on spell check because it will often steer you wrong. Technology is great, but students still have to have the know-how without it. Oftentimes, spell check becomes a way for a student to avoid learning how language works. When a student is presented with unfamiliar material, they don't know how to parse what they are reading

The first stage of the writing process involves planning and organizing what is to be written through activities including thinking, brainstorming, reading, researching and observing. According to Scott and Vitale (2003), the prewriting stage comprises nearly half of the time spent on the writing process. Students with disabilities in the French immersion program encounter the same types of challenges as regular program students including challenges determining the purpose, topic, and audience

Writing is the creation of shareable ideas for all in the world to read and assimilate, and each and every one of us has the power to do it. Writing is an Art, as elaborate, as emotional, as personal, and as valuable as any painting or sculpture or building. Words form the bricks, the paint, and the marble. Then the word weaver’s choice of words and

much better to have, even though most people don’t make a rough copy because they’re too lazy. This lethargy is due to the advanced technology of computers. Also, almost all programs are equipped with a spell-check. Spell-check is, in other words, a dictionary without the definition. So, because of spell-check, one wouldn’t need to use the dictionary, or is it one would be too lazy to use the dictionary? The use of the internet is also used to cheat. People can look for something to plagiarize across

Speech Recognition (ASR), Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and Information Retrieval (IR). Spell checking is yet another significant application of computational linguistics whose research extends back to the early seventies when Ralph Gorin built the first spell checker. Today, spell check is very important and is used every day in Microsoft word and in search engines. In this paper I will discuss how spell check works. [1] 2.

document for example a letter of application and tries to spot any errors within it. Proofreading is better than spellchecking a document because if someone reads it they will be able to tell whether or not there are any grammatical errors whereas a spell checker will not pick up on that as long as the word is spelt correctly.

If you were to ask some high school students, “Have you ever looked up a sports score or checked your Twitter feed in class on your phone or computer?” what do you think their answer would be? The answers from most, if not all, of the students would be “yes”. Technology use has drastically increased over the past few years, and this dramatic increase is having its effects on classrooms. With online textbooks, homework, and lectures, it is inevitable for it to have an effect. Technology is rising

Anna’s attempt to save Elsa is the act of true love that was needed to break the spell.

Ivan shrugged. "Don't tell me." Cole nodded. "I know you want to get right down to the spell, but I need nightfall for it to be most effective."

CHAPTER 1 There is a beautiful land called Taylem. It has no cities, just little districts spread across the land. The districts are like villages where everything the village needs is grown and made in the district. The country is a beautiful place of rolling hills, dense forests and plenty of natural wildlife. The districts are not joined by nasty concrete roads but instead they have dirt or cobblestone roads made by people in the districts. There are no cars, planes, busses or trains in Taylem
