Technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in the world today. Given time, technology will completely replace the teacher in the classroom. Analyze both sides of this argument.

In today’s world, the use of

technology

is ever-increasing. Even in classrooms

technology

can be commonly seen. The

argument

that

technology

will completely replace the

teacher

in the

classroom

is a subject

that is

both

supported and refuted by many.

Both

sides of

this

argument

will be analyzed before a reasoned conclusion is drawn.

Firstly

it is easy to see the progressive rate at which

technology

is able to mimic

both

the physical and mental abilities of human beings.

For example

, the Honda robot Asimov can today move its body and manipulate objects with human-like precision.

Therefore

the possibility of robotic teachers in the future truly becomes a plausible outcome given time. Because of

it is easy to see why the

argument

that

could replace human teachers in the

classroom

has garnered support.

However

it must be remembered that a

teacher

powered by artificial intelligence would have little to no control over its students.

For example

, it is commonly understood that children require the watchful eye of a

teacher

to ensure that they are indeed completing their class work and not fooling around during class time.

Unfortunately

Thus

this

makes it clear why the

argument

that

technology

will never completely replace the

teacher

in the

classroom

could

also

be plausible. In summary,

both

sides of the

argument

regarding the possibility of a technologically driven

classroom

have strong support.

However

it is clear that

the idea of having a class run entirely by a machine cannot be supported. As

, it is predicted that the negative aspects of the debate over computerized teaching will forever be stronger than the positive ones and because of

this

computers will never replace teachers.
