would it be cool if the teachers are replaced by computers in schools?

no ...\nthey shouldn´t replace teachers you don´t like - because you can´t argue with them ...\nand they shouldn´t replace teachers you like - because no computer could have feelings ...

you could go down the humorous route and draw an empty classroom, or  playground.\nIf the magazine is aimed expressly at teachers and not their pupils, then you could consider drawing the same thing I suppose.  Maybe a blackboard with a whole lot of really easy maths on it,  and a pupil wearing a halo.  And how about a whole basket of apples on the teachers desk?

I gotta better idea!  Go to your nearest school, ask the principal to give you the name of x amount of needy children who might need a computer and donate them!  You'll feel so much better.

I don't have time to watch the video...at least not now, but I think it would depend how the money is spent, it's not just how much money a district has that can make the difference. BUT, of course having money and using it wisely could make a significant difference - for example...up to date text books, computers in the classroom, current maps in the classroom. It's difficult to teach when the material is 10 years old. It would also help to pay teachers more :-) because some really awesome teachers leave the profession because it costs more to live than we make. We do spend A LOT of out of pocket money for pencils, folders, paper and tissue and more because not all kids come from families who value education and send their kids to school with pencils or other supplies. I know I could make 3 times the money doing 1/3 the work, but there are things money can't buy, like the spontaneous hugs from kids and notes that tell me I'm the best teacher in the world.

I think it's a great idea.  Especially with the pervasiveness of computers in today's society.

Are you serious? You would lose your liscence to teach.

Well, perhaps that's where the world is going. Nowadays teachers not only have to teach, but according to the government take over teaching values, respect, sex education, handling money & social skills. Perhaps they are now expected to do the learning for the students too?!? Hmmmm, interesting thought....

Doesn't your school provide these types of resources for teachers?

Simply -- Ask.\n\nI know you just did, but I mean ask people around you. Schools and Businesses often upgrade PC's and sometimes have a closet full of 'junk' ones that have no value to them but may be perfect for you.  If you are in school or work somewhere that uses computers ask the computer teacher or IT person. If you don't, then see if someone you know can ask the IT person at thier job for you.\n\nI work in IT and I got 7 last week, without even asking.  They asked me to please dispose of them. I did by bringing  them home.

I would not be so sure. You have obviously made a good case for the pros of the set up. But I believe that students at an impressionable age lack the determination to sit through an internet session and learn something from it.\nThe very way teaching is conducted, empahsizes on serious taxation of the brain and I can much imagine the current crop of students, already suffering from Attention Deficit Disorder to not make much sense of such a course.\n\nMaking them sit through the course in a class may just work better

The way they are reducing education standards they might as well scrap school.\n\nFFS they are even allowing TXT SPEAK to be used in essays for everything but English Language these days.

No, but if they did it would probably make recruiting teachers a lot easier. If you are having a problem with a teacher they could be the problem or it could be you.

as long as there are computers there will be a need for people to teach others how to use them and a need for people who know how to fix them.\n\nbut graphic design has always interested me.

They already do. Teachers in the US make very low wages for the amount of education they have and the amount of work they do. It's almost a volunteer job. They often pay out of their own pockets for school supplies and other materials to help children who don't have enough money to buy them. Without volunteer help, many teachers would not be able to do a decent job. I think parents and the community at large should make it a point to help teachers by voting for school funding and by volunteering to help teachers get their clerical work done.

Depends on the like though! I've aways wanted my teachers to like me because i was good at my work,but teachers are human, we tend to see them as walking encyclopedias - it would be good to know them as they really are people with feelings, family, dreams like everyone else too don't you think?

IT is the media. Personally, I prefer to have a real classroom filled with real people and a real instructor. Funny thing is, I am a programmer and Database Administrator and have been in IT for more years than I care to mention.

In high schools you get a number of computers. but only in main cities that there is an Internet access.And students hardly get Internet access.even PC are by queue.
