Introduction

Attract the audience

As the 21st century go toward information oriented society, information is the power. People want and need more information, so they try to get it with fast and easy way. The fast and easy way that people prefer these days is the Internet. As we know, Internet has lots of information and we can get the information that we want comfortably. But that way of getting information can be dangerous. I mean it is dangerous when people believe and use it without sorting process.

Explains the topic

When we search the information from the internet, the confusing information is hiding. If you use it without any doubt, the problem will happen. For example, let's assume that you use the confusing information to your presentation. People who listen your presentaion, will also become to believe your wrong information because they think you did the enough research and tell the information to them. And the idea will become generalized among people until the conscious one appear. To prevent this case we need to raise the critical attitude toward the information from the Internet.

My argument:
I want to argue that we should not always believe the information which is wandering about the Internet. We can easily get lots of information through the Internet and we tends to belive it without any doubt. But we have to raise the critical attitude when we get it through the information.

How I found my argument :
 My first research question was, how confusing information gets generated and affects people? As I continued researching, I realized that there are lots of confusing information on the Internet. So I felt the necessity of critical attitude. Eventually I thought that we should not always believe the information which is wandering about the Internet.


New research questions :
I have several questions that need to be resolved.
a)What is the more reliable way to get the information?
b)What is the problem of beliving the information from the internet without doubt?
c)How many people prefer to use the Internet to get the information?
I'll conI'll continue browsing the internet and looking for interesting articles and keeping track of my research with blog posts.
 
Connections to the Harvard Sampler :
This argument has many connections to the Harvard Sampler. First, it is obviously directly related to the Internet section, especially information and power. Second it connects to 'Is Magarine or Butter Worse for Your Health? How confusing Scientific Evidence Gets Generated' because both are talking about the damage of confusing information.
