TOEFL integrated writing: communal online encyclopedia

The reading claims that online encyclopedias aren't as productive as the traditional ones and brings three reasons of support. However, the professor disagrees with the idea by saying that the article is totally ignorant of the advancement of online encyclopedias, and refutes all the article's reasons.

First of all, the article states that online encyclopedias aren't reliable enough since they are provided by a vast number of users who don't necessarily have the requisite academic knowledge about the subjects. The professor challenges this reason by mentioning that traditional encyclopedias are far less accurate than the online ones despite the fact that they are organized by experts. She also believes that no source of information can be without flaws both in online and printed versions.

Secondly, the article posits that the information in online types might get changed by hackers who might be motivated to delete or corrupt the articles in encyclopedias. The professor refutes this by explaining that some crucial aspects of each article are in the reading format, which means the users can not change them. Additionally, she informs us of some specialists who continuously review the changes made by users and modify the incorrect ones. This procedure of checking the errors is an advantage to the printed versions which might maintain the mistakes for decades.

Third, the article believes that since in online encyclopedias, unlike the traditional types, each subject is fully described with total details and focus, users would not be able to understand the importance of the topics properly. The professor disagrees with the reason by positing that traditional encyclopedias need to be abstract about some fields because of the insufficiency of space. However, in online encyclopedias, space is unlimited, and there are plenty of articles suitable to the diversity of users' interest. She believes that this variety of articles about different fields of study is the online encyclopedias' most significant advantage.
