Shouldn't We Try The Robots Instead ?

Have you ever thought of having robots in school as teachers instead of having the real persons?

It may sound weird but sometimes, I really wanted to bite the idea and see for myself  which one works better.

Teaching is one of the noblest things a person can ever do in his life.  As a teacher, whether you're a professional or not, so much is expected from you.  As a teacher, you're like a fish in a bowl, watched by so many people around, trying to check whether you're swimming the way you taught people how to swim.  As a teacher, you cannot go wrong and definitely,  you have no privilege either  to commit mistakes . Otherwise, you will lose your credibility.  Hence, teachers try their best to live up to the ideals of teaching.
They try  to become  role models to their students and be the living examples of their own preaching. 

Unfortunately, teachers are not supernaturals. They are not gods, either.  They are just  human beings with their own sets of misgivings.  Just like anybody else, teachers are also susceptible to feel good or bad on anything that affects them and to react accordingly.  And just like anybody else in other fields, teachers have their own emotions and  pride to protect, including their thick-shelled  insecurities.  All these put together make it difficult for us to understand why some teachers behave the way they should not or the other way around.

It is for these reasons that  I had this wildest thought - that is  to try robots in school as teachers.  Robots will only do what you have instructed them to do.  They will do their lesson plans as instructed and submit the same on time as ordered.  They will teach the children the way they were required to do so.  They will never sleep during vacant hours inside the classrooms or even during class  hours. They will never cheat their attendance sheets.  They will not talk about the misgivings of other robots.  They will not mind rumors and gossips.   They will never feel insecure of anybody.  There will be no professional rivalry or jealousy among them.  They will just  follow orders which some teachers  find it so difficult to do.

How I wish robots are capable of  loving their clients, both the students and the parents, their peers or colleagues and their superiors as well.    How I wish they are capable of being compassionate, too!  How I wish robots  are capable also of being sensitive to the needs and feelings of the people around them.  How I wish they can also work in a team ~ cooperating and coordinating with each other, not for the good of anyone alone, but for the good of the whole school.

Teachers are capable of doing all the things that robots can do.  Most importantly, teachers are capable of doing all the things that robots cannot do. That's how superior teachers are to the robots.      The only problem is, some teachers wanted to be treated like robots, as if they are.  Shouldn't we try the robots instead?
