It investigates how Standard written English has been changed and adapted to suit the needs and conditions of electronic communication through identifying a number of discourse and linguistic features that are peculiar to the written English used in instant messaging. The research aims primarily at examining the effect of instant messaging language on students’ academic written productions. To check the hypothesis that instant messaging influences students’ academic writing negatively, data have been collected through a teachers’ questionnaire and a content analysis of real internet conversations used by thirty English students at University of Constantine 1, in order to elicit teachers’ attitudes towards the impact of instant messaging on academic writing and to check the features of instant messaging language in the students’ conversations.
