When writing any sort of paper for school, you automatically shift gears from how you normally text, tweet or even talk. A teacher gives you an assignment, and you answer the question, simple as that. If you have a formal paper due for a class, your not going to submit something full of grammatical errors, or even something in text format. And you absolutely are not going to submit something with hash-tags, acronyms, or inappropriate humor. As an avid "tweeter" I can relate to the difference between composing a tweet and even writing this blog post. I use my tweeter to express what i'm feeling at that exact moment, whether it be angry, happy, and anything in between. Of course your audience when you are tweeting is totally different because majority of them are your friends. What you write doesn't matter because its yours, not what someone tells you to write about. So when writing for a teacher, your brain turns off the profanity, hash-tags, and LOL's. It goes into a mode of proper english as well as proper sentence structure, and grammar.
