Interesting in theory. I doubt that this is the wave of the future however! Classroom teachers do a LOT more than shout “Be quiet” and take attendance. And teaching by a robot? Don’t get me started!!

That said, I have seen substitute teachers who could / should be replaced be a robot! (In fairness, most subs are pretty good … didn’t mean to slight substitute teachers!)

Man the economy must be bad. Robots even have to reevaluate their career options.

Well, it’ll be better if they can make “her” prettier…( I’m sure they can! Look at those Japanese actresses on TV!)

may not get respect, but make its eyes turn red and have it spin its head around a few times and I bet those kids will get quiet and listen REAL fast.
