It's true |

|

|

All for it. Artificial Intelligence is just around the corner. They are using computers to study
individuals habits. Once that is achieved, a computer will be able to detect a learning curve and
cater the lessons according to the results. |

Today computers are used in almost every field. Whether we want to book tickets, to maintain
accounts or communicate with each other – computers are there to answer our every need. So we see
that computers are slowly replacing human beings at work and why shouldn’t they, since they are
far more efficient than human hands and save us valuable time. The question we are addressing today
is- can computers replace human beings as teachers too? My opinion is- Yes, they can. Not only can
they do the work of a teacher but they can do it better too. I will tell you the advantages of it.
In my class I notice that children are often distracted by things like what the teacher is wearing,
her mannerisms or the kind of mood she is in. These things tend to become so important to some
pupils that they lose focus on the topic that is being taught. With computers taking the role of
teachers students will no longer have any such distraction and will be able to concentrate on the
subject .
Another advantage with computers is that unlike humans they do not need breaks on account of bad
health or their any other personal commitments. Thus schedules are never disturbed. Not only the
syllabus can be finished on time but will go on an even pace. So the students need not be hurried
through their course and their performance would not suffer at the end of the year.
There is another reason why computers might be preferred over human teachers which is because there
is no possibility of a computer favoring or preferring some students over others. Discouragement and
neglect will then not make poor scorers of some students as it sometimes happen with children who
greatly depend on support and encouragement of their teacher. Apart from these, errors made by human
teachers while evaluating students’ performance because of poor judgment and tiredness can also be
avoided. Needless to say, the process of evaluation will be faster too.
Thus I am of the opinion that computers can replace human beings as teachers and can prove to be a
better replacement. |

I feel computers should replace teachers because --
1)saves time
2) economical
3)makes lessons interesting
4)learning bcomes fun
5)production of such computers in large scales would lead to creation of lacs of jobs....which would
well compensate fr d job loss by removing teachers, as my worthy oppents hv said.. |

(NB: Who i am ? I am a student in second year of graduate study in Belgium. I am in a computer
science school who use computer a lot behind teachers).
I think people who vote Against are fear by computer and do not know well what computer can do.
We can't replace teachers by a computer. Because computer are not done for that.
Computer is use for help humain by giving him what he want.
But, computer can help to replace lots of teachers ' works and take a more important place at
school.
For exemple:
- Teacher give lesson to student, with computer help (video, animation, www ...). The heart of
course. And after let's student to themselves with program on the subject, www ...
- Computer can check homework, can be use for data base of the course (ppt, pdf, vidéo, link,
planning ...), can make some evaluation test and lot of other things.
- Computer can be simulator for math, science; can be helpfull for history, geography; can help
language teacher in assistance ...
Computer can't replace teacher but it can replace lot of work and replace the idea of learning.
=> more by the student self (if controle behind), more argumented, more true...
=> less boring, less lost time( sit on a seat to just listen), less useless teacher to support, less
be assisted...
I think a better school. |

No, as computers are proggrammed, they only can do wat they are programmed to do,so if the class is
noisy,it cannot do anything.Also, they could not anwser all the anwsers |

I believe whole-heartedly that teachers should be replaced by computers. This is from experience.
My math teacher can't teach for his life, but by watching online videos, I have gained so much
insight in math, it's become fun learning it again. I believe that there should be mentors there in
classrooms in case a student needs physical help but the main source of learning should be from a
video source of a really good teacher/explainer of the subject. That way, the system can be unified
and there won't be unfair teachers/problems/standard problems/etc. :) |
| |
|
| |
|

Yes because then we wouldn't have to pay teachers. |
| |
|

Du they should because there smarter lol |

I personally have received a lot of free classes at free-ed.com, including classes that I have yet
to take. I am a Sophomore in high school, taking enriched geometry, but I already have a thorough
understanding of the basic in trigonometry. I also take classes that I am currently in, and I have
found that in every class, I learn as much, if not more, that what my teachers teach. |

Many aspects of our educational system are outmoded. For example, the practice of giving lectures at
university is really a relic of the Middle Ages when the technology of printing had not yet been
invented. There is rarely any real need for lectures nowadays except when the lecturer is presenting
material so distinctive that it does not exist anywhere in book form. For 95% of lectures given in
the higher education system today, written material, accessed either in printed form or online,
would be preferable.
It would be better if students were responsible for their own education through personal study in
online texts. There should be a teacher available to offer advice if needed but the fact that all
education is given in a collective classroom context simply holds back the more able students and
brings them down to the level of the lowest common denominator. |

-Computers just act to what humans tell them to do. Teachers respond to students, not act in front
of students.
-Teachers have emotional feelings, unlike mechanical objects.
-Computers will cost more than teachers.
-Computers may take more time to use than teachers respond to students. |

A robot is not personal. A teacher can adapt to the students individually. |
| |
|
| |
|

|

This is so a bad idea because robot teachers are invading korea and they arent much like people
think but I think they are a hindrance to learning cos they suck. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|

No way can computers replace teachers.
Computers sre used for free time or for getting info on stuff but they can never replace teachers...
If ur talking about robots then maybe yes .... |

Computers are not smart they are not as smart as the human they are as smart as the programer (cuz
the human brain is complex) |

No ....bcoz computer dont hav feelings ,............................they cant compare between goood
points and bad points of students .... |

Computers have one answer to any question. A good teacher is willing to ponder alternate answers
that students suggest, no matter how poorly phrased, to discover the gist of their argument. |

Computers replacing teachers could lead to COMPUTERS TAKING OVER THE WORLD!!! |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|

Definitely not. Putting aside the issues of the recession and cost-related problems with teachers
and even money for the technology, computers cannot empathize with people, or as we so far know.
Although technology is great and can be applied in many different areas, teaching is just not one of
them. A teacher must help students learn, not just provide information as a computer does. |
| |

It would not do to have computerss to replace teachers because all you would do would be half an
hour on the computer. What would happen if you didn't understand, the computer can't help you but a
teacher could. |

"Education in the largest sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind,
character or physical ability of an individual".In that case I don't believe that computers can
replace teachers.The duty of teacher is not only to teach the students the portions in the syllabus,
teacher plays the role of a parent, a guide & even a good friend.Teachers can play a good role in
overall development of a child which a mindless computer can't. |
| |
|
| |
|

|

It may be that computers are more advanced but it could concern the issues of job loss. Teachers can
show students that the teachers could befriend a student IF the students will cooperate withe the
teachers while computers or any other device will goon and on letting the kids at an advantage sure
those stuff might be cool fancy and smart but teachers can be too and we must be reminded that we
are losing more and more resources everyday and it might take alot of power so therefore i conclued
that we cannot replace teachers with any devices because we need our good old fashioned teachers to
guide us properly. |

It would be harder to learn and would require too much work to program it to your learning
requirements. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
Several reasons:
1) Computers are not sufficiently advanced enough to replace teachers. When true AI, or passably
true AI exists, then perhaps this would be possible(Though there are many theoretical arguments
against why true AI is impossible).
2) Computers can provide information, learning is a different issue.
3) Large amounts of information on the internet is anonymously authored, and not very reliable.
Growing up with "bugs" in your thinking processes isn't that great(Though traditional teaching
introduces such bugs as well - "My country is the greatest" etc)
4) Compare learning something less trivial than "trigonometry". If you had to learn Aikido/Tennis
from a "computer", it might be possible, for a very dedicated individual. But can you beat learning
from a master, who you can see doing the right moves.
5) Social interaction/motivation. If 100 students were taught by a teacher, in traditional methods,
some of them might feel 'slowed down' or 'restricted', but they have the advantage of discipline.
The same 100 students left to learn by themselves would do far far worse on average in a long term
scenario(1 year is long term).
In this case, it's a question of slow&steady vs fast&unreliable.
Certain select students might really be able to utilize the limitless potential of all the knowledge
available over the internet, but they are the EXCEPTION, not the rule.
Computers are great in education, whether using wikipedia, or looking up journal articles, how-to
videos, etc etc etc
A human brain has over a hundred billion neurons, on average. The number of interconnections
possible exceeds the predicted number of atoms in the universe. Computers may one day replace
teachers fully, but there's a while before they approach the outer limits of human capability. A few
decades at the least, but who can say? |

No way computers should be replaced as a teacher!!!!
School is supposed to be boring and hardcore with so mch work and stuff, if teachers are replaced b
computers then its gonna be fun and you can do whateva you want!!!!
This is like cheating in a game:
Starting a game and trying to be the best is boring and hard
then when you cheat it's fun but it ruins the game
and fun i school with a computer that talks ruins your education
so i think that computers should be used for their normal usage:
Reasearch, games, study, browse,chat etc. |

No,Because when theres no teachers to teach you... And if ur FOR it ur wrong.. B/c from computer you
really wont get the best answer..but from teacher u can get the knowledge and the help to know more
about the thing ur doing or anything.
Thanks,Jimmy!! |

No way who would want a computer talking for 70 minutes |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
No way! Teachers are a vital part of our economy. If we were to replace teachers with computers than
millions of jobs would be lost and the recession would deepen even more. Children's grades would
also fall dramatically, as they could easily cheat and get away with it. Students need teachers as
they can tailor lessons to a specific classes needs and give feedback on work. Computers cannot have
compassion, interest or any other emotion to a student. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
If students were to learn from computers, they would just cheat and do something else because the
computer can do nothing about it. Also, the students would go on game websites or go on
inappropriate websites. And when the parents fine out, the school will be close down. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
NO!!! Believe it or not, there actually are a lot of us young people who learn much better with an
actual person teaching us and answering our questions and tailoring the lessons to a specific
class's needs. I find it very hard to learn from a computer. Even just printing stuff out helps.
Computers are NOT the ideal method of learning for a lot of people. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
Computers aren't yet able to adjust to a students learning style. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
No way they would jump around and throw things at the computer. Plus how would it pass out any thing
it would tell kids to pass it out and then they would throw it away. There would be a lot of
cheating and cheting.The kids would love it. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
Teachers are very helpful to students because when a student has a question, they can go ask their
teacher. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
No, I don't think computers should replace teachers. Children need the one on one learning that
teachers provide. I don't think children would learn as much just using a computer. I think having
reports where you stand up in front of the class and present them is a vital part of school.
Children also need the interaction with other children. It is a part of growing to be a social
being. I would never recommend taking this route in teaching kids and if it ever came about that
that is the way teaching would start happening, I would home school my children. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
No, who wants some machine speaking monotone for 70 minutes? |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
No, absolutely not. As a student I'm saying it's a terrible idea. Teachers are able to asses
students based on a relationship a computer would never be able to build. Teacher also teach
valuable mannerisms. Plus with computers there is such a thing called information overload which i
can't imagine being good for a student...or how about this, next time you have a problem with an
assignment, ask your computer. If it does answer you, see if you don't take the fallowing hour
trying to analyze the information so you can use it . |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
One thing about the student-teacher relationship that plays a very important role in ensuring
maximum learning is the human connection or bond. A teacher does not only provide education he is a
friend and a confidant in so many cases. A good teacher attends to the needs of a student according
to his mood and personal needs etc. For example often young children are given more time to grasp a
concept and do certain work simply because they are dealing with a family situation at home like a
divorce maybe. A computer can never cater to these human needs. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
There are a great many things that only a person can teach. At present computers lack the know how
to adapt to a students needs. Good teachers are able to alter their teaching style to make sure
that the lessons are sinking in.
While I am all for textbooks on CD or online, computers are no substitute for real live teachers. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
There are just things that a person can only teach. |
| |
|
| |
|
| |
|
|
That's ridiculous, no matter how advanced computers have gotten in recent years, they cannot compete
with the abilities that a human teacher has. They cannot adjust strategies or teaching styles to
deal with different situations and students, they cannot have compassion or interest or any other
emotion toward a student.
Computers are great in their place, but they do not have universal application. |
