encyclopedias
The reading and the lecture are about communal online and printed encyclopedias. The author of the reading mentions controversies with the online encyclopedia. The lecturer challenges the claims made by the author and comes with plausible solutions which are mentioned as follows.
First of all, the author says the online encyclopedia lacks academic credentials and are inaccurate. However, the lecturer tells that no encyclopedia is correct whether it is printed or online. she mentions if someone needs a really comprehensive reference book without any mistakes then they never going to find it online or offline. She additionally mentions that errors are made in the online encyclopedia can be corrected easily but when coming to the printed books errors are going to remain for decades.
Secondly, the writer mentions that the online encyclopedia can be hacked and the information can be corrupted. The professor contradicts this and says that the articles cannot be changed because no one disputes or intervenes in the format already made, this way articles of online are reliable. she also mentions that there are special editors who can eliminate, clear the mistakes, and also they can make changes to the articles.
Finally, the author posits that online encyclopedias provide a false impression of what is important and what is not. The article also mentions that there is no sense of proportion for online encyclopedias that what they should include and exclude. The lecturer, However, rebuts this by mentioning that printed encyclopedia has limited space so that they will think before they include some topic, whereas with the online encyclopedia space is not an issue. she elaborates this by bringing up the point that in fact, a great variety of topics can attract a great diversity of user interests.
