How Robots Will Shape Education in the Future
Education has changed enough in the past few years that we all know how little we can predict what it will look like in five or ten. We do know that we can expect many of the technologies that are starting to trickle into classrooms now to become more affordable and potentially become larger components in everyday education.
We can also anticipate that distance learning will only become more prominent in years to come. As people become used to doing more of life’s activities all online, the switch to taking classes online or being taught by someone in another state or country will only come to feel more natural. Robots like those being used in the example above may help this transition along, while also helping to humanize the increasingly digital and remote classroom experience (yes, a robot in human form, potentially carrying around a human face on a tablet counts as “humanizing” the experience)
As with so many types of tech, how useful (and potentially harmful) robots can be to education will have more to do with how educators and students choose to use them than with the technology itself. We may not be on the cusp of having robot teachers like in the Jetsons, but robots have already made their mark in education and will continue to do so.
