Teachers In The Future?

One of the questions unanswered these days would be ‘will there still be schools and teachers in the future?’. Why is that question asked? Because these days our lives are filled with electronics. When people want to talk to others who are in another country, they can just grab their laptops and start video-chatting or when people want to count difficult numbers, they can get the calculator and calculate the numbers.

According to me, there should still be teachers. Even if we’ll have the best technologies in the future, teachers are important to everyone. Even the smartest person on earth needed a teacher at first. There are a lot of things that only humans can teach. Things that robots or computers can’t answer. Maybe robots can answer mathematical or scientific questions asked by students. But when kids ask about something that cannot be answered by robots, what will happen? Teachers know how to explain things to students, but robots don’t. When someone doesn’t understand what a teacher is explaining, it could be re-explained in a different way that might help that person to understand. But robots can’t do that.

So, the point is that teachers cannot be replaced by robots, computers or any other technologies that might be used to educate in the future. It’s good to have advanced technology but we cannot be replaced by them.
