integrated task... traditional way of voting vs. computers
In the set of material, the reading and the lecture talk about replacing a traditional voting system with a computerized voting system. The article claims that the tradition way of voting has several issues, so it should be replaces with more trust worthy computerized system; it provides three reasons for support the claim. On the other hand, the professor says it’s doubtful that computerized voting will make the situation better and he refuses each reasons mentioned in the passage.
Firstly, the author asserts that people accidentally vote for the wrong candidate is the major source of inaccuracy in the traditional voting and computers can use easily. While the professor claims that people who don’t use a computer daily, they will have trouble using computerized voting machines. It may end up in the wrong vote or be discouraged from voting because of fear of technology.
Another point mentioned in the article is that the traditional way of voting is rely heavily on people to count the votes and they are more likely to make mistakes. In contrast, the lecture says its true some time human make mistakes in counting, but computers are also human innovation and error caused by computers will be more serious. Result of that, computers may miscount many votes or may permanently remove those from the program.
Finally, the passage points that government and every person trust computers for bank transactions and communication, so using it for voting would not be risky. On the other hand the professor posits that the computer used daily for banking and communication purposes and they were not perfect when introduced first, they improves over a time. However, the voting happens one a two years so it is not sufficient to develop confidence to use it.
