Have you ever seen "The Jetsons" cartoon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jetsons)? Remeber seeing George and Jane pick up their son and daughter (Elroy & Judy) at school? The teacher was a robot!!!
In the 1960's they were so sure that we would be flying in our cars by the year 2000, and although the cartoon is set in 2062 I still believe that part of this future is here! I am not a robot but I use my computer to teach. I don't think that robots will ever completely take over for teaching but I do feel that technology will help to drive our education more and more in the future.
So.... the future is here - I can teach students using the internet, Skype, Facebook, YouTube (and TeacherTube), cell phones, and so much more!
Keep an eye on my blog and watch out for my:
ADVENTURES IN TEACHING!!!
