Topic: Robots to teach in Abu Dhabi school (Read 952 times)
It seems these days that teachers are no longer teachers, they are tellers. They tell you what to hear while overlooking the entire goal they're trying to accomplish - to teach.
Teaching is not only about showing how to do things, it is also about assessing the child's strength, weaknesses, understanding and change teaching methods accordingly. How could a robot do that? A robot teacher is just like watching a video.
We are playing with very hot fire.
I would love to have a robot teacher when i was a kid. It would make the class much more fun.
That's going to be a shitty way to be brought up in a school, it will definitely cause all sorts of problems, that said at least it will make it easier for kids to take over the classrooms so they can have some freedom in their lives since the robot won't be able to handle them lol 
I assure you human teachers can cause problems to children aswell. Don't tell me you never heard of abuses in your school from professors. You fear people of tomorrow will be less social because of this shift? I can't say that's for sure, but at least they won't be traumatized.
I suppose so if you think about it like that to be honest, it's not just robots, I'm hardly a technophobe I generally worry about the education children are going to receive now considering the shitty experience I've had and I suspect they're going to have an even shittier education than me. It's less to do with social aspects in life and more to do with the fact that a robot isn't smart enough to answer the kind of questions a child will have about life.
Robot sex doll is more appealing and come with less responsibility.
If I am a parent, you will have a hard time convincing me to entrust my children education to a robot teacher.

This is a bad idea , I think is better an human that a robot 
, However they have money and they do what they want

, However they have money and they do what they want .Still at least many years down the road to have a workable version.
It takes more than information to educate the kid. The teachers need to simulate emotion and looks like a real person before it can be fully deployed on wide scale.

Well things like this were science fiction until five years ago or so, but technology is moving faster than most people expected and this will bring so much confusion and problems into their lives.
I want to recommend this book, which is really interesting and gives you a whole different perspective on this topic (well, people on Bitcoin should already have a similar opinion):

Actually, I'm all for this in American schools and colleges. If socialism is going to be instilled in the youth, we might as well not be paying for it to be taught. Put all these tenured mouth pieces out to pasture.

Abu Dhabi: Robots will soon be teaching basic math and other subjects at a private school in Abu Dhabi.
Merryland International School in Mussafah has launched what it claims is the first robotic lab in a UAE school, with more than 30 cutting edge robots including humanoids with built-in intelligence.
Humanoid AISOY Raspberry Pi robot will teach basic addition and subtraction while Nao, the 57-cm tall Evolution Humanoid robot from France, will help special needs children.
Nao can walk, talk and even recognise emotions. The programmable robot can also be used to explore research topics in robotics, computer science, human-machine interaction and even social sciences.
