Will Computers Replace Human Teachers?

�

　　1. Computers are cold impersonal devices and they relate to children as though they are machines—without love, care, or feeling.

�

　　2. Children who use computers will learn to communicate with machines instead of people. There is a risk we will create a generation of social illiterates. There is some truth to the stereotypical “computer nerd”.

�

　　3. Teacher-directed learning is underpinned by personal awareness and a focus on students. IT-directed focus is impersonal.

�

　　4. Within a class of 25 children, there may be 25 variables. These variables are understood by teachers but not by computer-generated and controlled programs.

�

　　5. Classroom teachers become aware of student learning difficulties and foibles .

�

　　6. Computers present programs that can not be accommodated. Personalized shifts do not happen.

�

　　7. Computer-generated learning places all students in the group onto the same program, at the same point, progressing them as a collective. Individual differences are not recognized.

�

　　8. Having a teacher in the classroom poses many opportunities for the students to learn life’s basics.

�

　　9. Having physical teachers in the classrooms is advantageous because they can teach personal interaction, reading, and teamwork. And computer cannot teach these things.

�

　　10. There can be confusion between reality and fantasy, between fact and myth
