IT and the classroom
How can technology help students learn? Will learning change?
1. A school in Japan is using a robot in the classroom to teach Science and Technology. The robot can look happy, sad or angry and is just like a human. In some schools in Japan — for example, in the countryside — there aren’t enough teachers to teach Science and Technology lessons. So this remote-controlled robot is a great idea. It’s amazing that scientists can now programme a robot to replace a human teacher. Maybe in the future, all schools will use robot teachers!
2. If every student in the class has a tablet computer, and our school has a wi-fi network, learning will be much more interesting. We’ll be able to work together, and do projects, and share ideas. We’ll be able to work at our own speed when our teacher gives us exercises. Also, we’ll be able to connect with students in classrooms all over the world and talk to each other live online. It’s a great way to improve our English!
3. Interactive video games are lots of fun, and they’re also educational. Games can teach students about the real world. Some games teach us about different places and different times in history. One day maybe we won’t need books to learn about history. We’ll use special headsets or glasses and go into a virtual environment. We’ll experience what life was really like.
