Prompt#4 Scholar VS Popular

Compare to the scholar articles, the articles from blog seems more easy to understand for public. Even for me, a person in chemical field, still feel the blog is more readable.

In blog, we find that we barely see a technical term. However, in a academic essay, it has a lot of professional vocabularies. It is makes sense that when people read blog, they do not have to pause due to the professional words. And it will make the reading process smooth and fluent. About details in explanation, the scholar article will never use like personal experiences or untested things in paper. Instead, it will give you a detailed research, how it works and the outcomes. Everything in scholar article is rigorous and punctilious. Which is kind of boring for normal readers. In blog, we can use anecdotes, hilarious stories or even jokes as examples.

I think, if a person is major or want to deep in a certain area, then he or she should choose scholar sources. If a audiences just curious and not want to dig into, then the blogs or journals are enough for their demand.
