I am working on the implications instant messenger has on education. The two different debates argue whether or not instant messenger helps or hurts the student as a writer. This topic is important as programs such as instant messenger have become mainstream in our society. Although many would argue that instant messenger hurts the student, I am going to argue that by using instant messenger, the student is affected in a more positive way than what most would think.

I think that your topic is very interesting, but have you been able to find any documents on JSTOR? I'm not sure that you will be able to find any information in support that students are affected positively by instant messenger. I would like to see the ending result to see what ideas you come up with, I think the complete opposite though. I think that IM has destroyed writing for students, even myself.
