Question: Is there much interest in teaching spelling today? (1974)?
Answer: “From this
study it can be inferred that educators have lost interest and neglected the
study and teaching of Spelling. There seems to little utilization of the
knowledge acquired through years of experience and research.” BL Criscoe. 1974. P. 398.
Comment: Is the same
true in 2012? Misspellings hurt
academically and socially. With spell-checks on the computer, it’s too easy to
ignore spelling. We can predict
misspellings. RayS.
