It's really just the latest generation's version of shorthand in a way, although as the one kid said you shouldn't be using it in the final product, just drafts and so forth.

Maybe I'm old school, but the first time a kid turns in an assignment like that slap a big red F on it and they will quickly learn their lesson...
