Sažetak
Netspeak elements are very common among young people even in formal ways of communication. In this paper the authors tend to discover whether the ratio of those elements is growing or falling by increasing the level of students’ education. The authors analyze the presence of Netspeak elements in asynchronous discussions within the ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) course taught in 1st semester and within the MIS (Management Information Systems) taught in 7th semester at Zagreb School of Economics and Management. The methodology the authors use is the analysis of the posts in asynchronous discussion within the 1st and 7th semester using Pearson product moment coefficient of correlation, One Sample Statistics and Paired Samples Statistics. The results confirmed the hypothesis that the freshmen are more subjected to Netspeak even in formal discussions than the senior students.
