Due Attention Should Be Given to Spelling

What is hot for 2010 in our colleges? It is the spelling mistakes. A lot of students lack due attention to spelling. Taking a look around, we can find examples too numerous to list, the one may be “challenge”. Freshman and sophomore almost write this word as “chalenge”. How careless they are!

Why such a phenomenon sweeps every university? Some experts attribute it to students’ inattention, because students always pay no attention to spelling. However, other experts argue, the teachers should be blamed for this situation. In my opinion, it is far beyond any reasonable doubt that both of them should exert themselves to change the spelling mistakes.

The spreading of the spelling mistakes has extremely negative effects on the education. For one thing, the special age that none of students can spell correctly will come soon. For another, while communicating with foreigners, we will be laughed at the spelling mistakes made by ourselves. As a result, due attention should be given to spelling immediately.

Due Attention Should Be Given to Spelling

As a basic skill in English studying, correct spelling plays a great important role in communication. However, nowadays, more and more students tend to pay less and less attention to it instead of focusing on only speaking.

Based on related surveys, the followings can be concluded to contribute to the situation. On the one hand, some students themselves, to avoid making great efforts in spelling, prefer to choose such easy ways to study English as through E-dictionaries or computers, which usually cause them to make some mistakes in spelling. On the other hand, a great number of teachers seem to be more concerned with grammar and vocabulary but not spelling in their teaching practice to improve students’ grades; therefore, students inappropriately spend less time and attention on their spelling.

As far as I’m concerned, there are many possible measures to be taken to solve the problem. To students, besides realizing the importance of spelling in exams and daily contacts, they should write as much as they can to form a good habit of studying. To teachers, they should be stricter with students in correct spelling and make dictation be a class compulsory task. Only by joint efforts of students and teachers can the misspelling problem be solved.
