Big words or small words - which are better?

When it comes to casual or informal conversations, I always stick to being simple.  Short and simple words will work if you want to get your message across.

However, when it comes to the academic community as well as intellectuals, you will have to exert additional effort than just relying on short and simple words.  Sometimes I cannot help but use certain words for the purpose of amplifying the message that I want to get across.  Some professors in college will give you extra points for doing just that.  Quoting passages and adding your own commentaries will bolster your performance in school.
