communal encyclopaedias
Both the reading and the lecture are about the attractiveness of online encyclopaedias and the factors that limit its usage. While the author advocates that negative results outweighs positive impact, the lecturer casts doubt on the claims made in the article. She claims that negative effect is greatly exaggerated.
Firstly, as the first limiting factor the writer states the lack of academic credentials of editors of online encyclopaedias, which make their contribution far less reliable. By the way of contrast, the lecturer posits that errors are also common in traditional format of books. Moreover, she points out that the simplicity of making changes in the online format make it a better source of information than the printed books, where the errors may be present for decades.
Secondly, according to the reading passage the threats in the face of hackers from the outside bring additional troubles in using the online format. The lecturer declined with this statement either. She contends that the online sources use two strategies in order to protect themselves from possible attacks. Those strategies include the use of format which cannot be changed and the regular monitoring of articles from special employees, who work as day-to-day editors. Therefore, the professor’s point is opposed to that of the author’s in the reading passage.
Thirdly, the text elaborates on the fact that communal encyclopaedias concentrate mostly on the popular topics, missing several important data. However, the woman disagrees with that statement and claims that online format has unlimited space and allows to focus deeply in the topics. Indeed, the books have insufficient space and should be focused primarily on the most important facts of the topics. In addition, the greater diversity of view and articles faster the reliability and popularity of communal encyclopaedias.
