Summary | A lot of parents would like their children to be able to speak the language of computers. However, Swiss schools do not allow kids to learn how to speak fluently HTML5, Python or Java Script. Switzerland is lagging behind in terms of digital education. In Anglo-Saxon countries, computer programming has been part of primary schools' curriculum for two years. Learning computer programming is useful if one wants to know the logic behind a smartphone, a video game, or a fridge.

Summary | Some people are worried that the new language of text messages is going to replace grammar, and that our children might forget how to write words properly. According to a study published in the Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, the answer is no. The results of the study show that 48% of the words are spelled according to standard spelling. The research also shows that there is no link between traditional spelling skills and text message features. Finally, they claim that the best students are the ones who use text message features the most. Other similar studies prove the same point.
