Suggested writing:
I disagree that robots will soon replace teachers at school. First, although robots can store much
information to provide to students, they cannot teach students how to behave in the right ways in
different situations. Second, a robot can only teach what is programmed, but cannot help students
deal with problems, especially troubles among students' relationships. Third, a robot can speak,
walk, do simple actions, but they cannot interact with students in the way human teachers do.
Robots do not have emotions and feelings, so I believe they cannot help students to deal with
problems related to feelings and emotions.
EXTRA ACTIVITY
- In groups of four, Ss discuss what they think it would be like if their teacher was a robot.
- Encourage them to come up with 4 - 6 ideas, then share their ideas with the rest of the class.
