Articulation

1) My argument
I want to argue that qualitative tour is better than quantitative tour. These days, as the demand about better tour has been increasing, it has been debated which is better way to improve tour; quality, which means staying long at certain attractions, or quantity, which means to visit as many attractions as possible. I want to highlight that any impression and appreciation that take great role of making the travel more precious and better, is hard to come about during the tour without quality.

2) How I found my argument
My first research was quality in tourism. It seems necessary to define the meaning of quality and quantity in my article. Through the article, I could learn that influence range attractions of qualitative and quantitative tour is more wide than I thought like environments or agents. While I continued researching I could get some supporting ideas that the travel which consists of torrential movement without enough stay time would make people lose their sincere purpose of travel (get relieved or happy), exhausted and deep understanding is hard to arise in short time and so forth. Also, I learned a word "competitive traveler" that expresses those who aim for quantitative travel Besides, researches became an opportunity I should take notice before writing my article like the definition or the travel period that would be an basis for my opinion.


3) New research questions
I have some questions I should resolve for my better article.

a) What is the average travel period of ordinary people?
b) How tourism agencies or other side can get influence by these type of travel?
c) What is the difference of information gained through between media and real place?
d) What kind of information is easy to remember? (From reading or experiences)
e) How many times the media give us distorted of wrong information?

I would keep researching through internet and think about my own experiences, and post it on my blog regularly.


4) Connections to the Harvard Sampler
The argument of mine has the connection with information exploit and control. In the middle of information revolution, we can get and use a number of information about some places before we visit there, but at the same time easy to get wrong or distorted information before going on a trip or limited to get what we want to know. This can be helpful in developing opinion of both sides.
