Imagine that you are in a classroom or a meeting. The teacher or the meeting leader says something incorrect in your opinion, which of the following is the best thing to do?
-Interrupt and correct the mistake right away
-Wait until the class or meeting is over and the people are gone, and then talk to the teacher or meeting leader
-Say nothing
Without any shadow of doubt, facing awkward social situations are inevitable. Although some people might adhere to the idea that correcting people is a kind of matter that should be take cared of right away, others possess the it is not necessary to say anything. As far as I am concerned, in such cases, it is more appropriate to wait until the meeting or class is over, then talk to the lecturer. I will elaborate on my reasons in the following paragraphs.
To start with, one should take into account that interrupting the person who is talking may cause him a distraction. Abrupt distractions like that, not only make the speaker to lose his concentration, but also cause him nervousness. They could lose the track of their thoughts, and as a result, the rest of the class or meeting will be a dead end. Relevant studies indicate that being corrected too much, will eventually make the person cold-feet about speaking in a group. In a five-year survey two groups of people were considered as subjects. The first group was supposed to correct the lecturer every time just in time, on the other hand, the second group had to write down the mistakes and give feedbacks after the speech. The result asserts that after being four times interrupted while speaking, people get 26% more reluctant to give a speech.
Another key thing I would to mention is that there is the chance that the teacher or meeting leader to find out he has made a mistake, and corrects it after that. It is a generally held believe that being inpatient in such situations brings up unpleasant consequences. For instance, the teacher’s feelings might get hurt, or feel embarrassment. Take a personal experience as an example: I remember I attended in a team meeting at my office. The manager who was the team leader, announced some wrong statistics, and I immediately cut his sentence trying to correct him. His face blushed, his voice got down and for some moments he could not speak. Then he went through his notes and said he had the right numbers. I still feel bad about that day, and always try to wait for the right time to speak in such occasions.
To bring everything in conclusion, I am of the view that it is not polite to provide right away interruptions when someone is speaking. Not to mention that regardless what they are talking about, it causes the speaker distractions and take away their chance to correct themselves. It is recommended that to wait the lecture to be conducted, and then correct the mistake provided that the speaker did not correct himself. I believe the value of some correct information pales in comparison to the prejudice of people.

Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
