Study sends literacy warning
Researchers have found time spent on the internet, playing computer games and sending messages through mobile phones and computers has an adverse affect on students' reading and writing skills.
The study was conducted by the Centre for Advancement of Chinese Language Education and Research at Hong Kong University last year and involved 40 primary schools.
It also found the reading performance of students taught in the classroom is better than those who have private tutorial help.
Tse Shek-kam, associate dean of the university's education faculty, said private tuition usually covers checking children's homework, repeating the teaching offered in schools and pre-teaching.
"Private tutoring reduces students' time for reading. It does not improve the reading performance of children, infact, it makes their performance worse," he said.

The eight types of plot can be planned and mapped from:
1. problem to solution,
2. mystery to solution,
3. conflict to peace,
4. danger to safety,
5. confusion to order,
6. dilemma to decision,
7. ignorance to knowledge, and
8. questions to answers.
