I think this is the best thing that could happen to education! What do you think?!
This is where everyone goes wrong; horribly. Some teahers are crap, granted, but only the ones that do not have a infectious passion for their subject. If a teacher loves their subject, then they will explain the subject with such vigor that students will have to sit up strieght and pay attention. To replace teachers with emotionless computers would be an awful error. How can a computer be passionate? Certainly, it is one of the most powerful educational tools in existance, but not without a person to guide the students.
No, no, no. People need people interaction. Computers do not do that. Information sharing is a way people interact with each other. Computers would begin to break the respect of the older people to the younger.
For teaching mathematics, anything having to do with computers and the hard sciences, replace the teachers. All the other subjects sort of require one of those "human heart" things. Some teachers are lacking one, but you have a better chance of finding a teacher with a heart than a computer with one.
It really just depends on the teacher like zeph's could probally be replaced.
I have a fun experiment with you Zephyr, but that is for later, as of now, we can not quite kill off people (Epsilon, what are you saying?!) and we need this small factor to pile onto our life skills, you run the computer in and out, however, other people run you, so if you never learn this in school, you may not have the same respect for officials as they want you too

Besides, kicking a teacher does not make them work better like kicking a computer (Tai is in my head too?)
Well to be honest i support it in a few subjects... mostly sciences and math. Most math needs to be explained over several times to help everyone understand it and then science is a hard subject for alot of people for some reason and i think it would be best for the whole to do it only those two areas.. but that is my opinion
After doing this quiz, I was thinking....
I had 30 subjects at Univ. 4 needed full practice, 4 needed a bit of practice, the rest were theorical (easily read from a book). Out of all the teachers (an average of 5 a subject) I had only 3 good teachers. Only one of those teachers was in a class with practice. So that gives you 20 subjects that could be replaced by computers, 67% of them all. So you have about 100 professors that are basically, unneeded. In another words, they are a waste of money. Said it in Tachibana style 'You'd be a waste of space cuz you suck!'
You can replace the Chinese teachers with computers, but the rest of them are useful in explaining stuff. Sorry, I've been in engineering school too long.
Just don't make em to smart! Otherwise, I, Robot happens.
