ROBOT TEACHERS
If you think of the jobs robots could never do, you would probably put doctors and teachers at the top of the list.
It's easy to imagine robot cleaners and factory workers, but some jobs need human connection and creativity. But
are we underestimating what robots can do? In some cases, they already perform better than doctors at
diagnosing illness. Also, some patients might feel more comfortable sharing personal information with a machine
than a person. Could there be a place for robots in education after all?

British education expert Anthony Seldon thinks so. And he even has a date for the robot takeover of the
classroom: 2027. He predicts robots will do the main job of transferring information and teachers will be like
assistants. Intelligent robots will read students' faces, movements and maybe even brain signals. Then they will
adapt the information to each student. It's not a popular opinion and it's unlikely robots will ever have empathy
and the ability to really connect with humans like another human can.

One thing is certain, though. A robot teacher is better than no teacher at all. In some parts of the world, there
aren't enough teachers and 9–16 per cent of children under the age of 14 don't go to school. That problem could
be partly solved by robots because they can teach anywhere and won't get stressed, or tired, or move somewhere
for an easier, higher-paid job.

Those negative aspects of teaching are something everyone agrees on. Teachers all over the world are leaving
because it is a difficult job and they feel overworked. Perhaps the question is not 'Will robots replace teachers?'
but 'How can robots help teachers?' Office workers can use software to do things like organise and answer emails,
arrange meetings and update calendars. Teachers waste a lot of time doing non-teaching work, including more
than 11 hours a week marking homework. If robots could cut the time teachers spend marking homework and
writing reports, teachers would have more time and energy for the parts of the job humans do best.

*** TRANSLATION PART

o Okula sinirli gelen öğretmen öğrencilerin hepsine bağırdı.(5p)

o Ne zaman mailleri sana yollarım bilmiyorum. Benim mesajımı bekle.(5p)

o Tom is thought to be the cleverest boy in our street. His capacity of solving the most complex problems
in a short time is known by all of our teachers. He will probably be given a scholarship at the end of this
term. He must have been taken into consideration by the administration. However, another boy who is
called Henry is more popular than nowadays. Although he is younger than Tom, Henry is claimed to be
the best one that this school has ever seen.(BONUS 10p 😊)
