The author states that traditional encyclopedias are a better source of information than the online ones and provides three reasons for support. However, the professor explains that the benefits of the online encyclopedias undermines those of traditional ones and refutes each of the authors' reasons.
Firstly, the readings say that there are many mistakes in the information present in the online encyclopedias due to the shortfalls in the academic knowledge of the contributors. The professor refutes this point by explaining that even traditional encyclopedias have errors in their content. Moreover, almost every piece of information present is somewhat fallacious. Also, unlike traditional encyclopedias, online encyclopedias can be corrected.
Secondly, the author posits that the are many chances of evil people to edit the content on the encyclopedias so as to present corrupt information or even delete some. However, the professor claims that people have taken security measurements to protect the content online. According to the professor, there are many special editors who have access to change and proof-read the content while for others it remains read-only format.
Thirdly, the reading claims that online encyclopedias have diverted the focus from the important historical and political issues towards more trivial ones. The professor opposes this point by saying that traditional encyclopedias have quite a limited pool of issues to discuss. She adds that the major advantage of online encyclopedias is their collection of a wide variety of topics and they are not limited, unlike the traditional ones.
