Teens write for a variety of reasons—as part of a school assignment, to stay in touch with friends, to share their artistic creations with others or simply to put their thoughts to paper (whether virtual or otherwise). In this section, we evaluate the ways in which computers and internet technologies interact with the types of writing teens do, the frequency with which they engage in writing, and their own perceptions of the quality of their writing. While assigning causality is beyond the purview of this study, we hope to place the issue of writing within the broader context of the technological immersion of today’s teens.
