We asked the students from our school what’s the best method of learning.

DO YOU THINK THAT IN THE FUTURE THE ROBOT WILL REPLACE THE TEACHER?

10 % of them said yes because there’ll be more information for us 90 % of them said no because:

- a robot hasn’t got feelings - it is cold and impersonal - it can have a malfunction -a human person is more

understanding - it will be strange to learn from a robot

DO YOU THINK THAT THE DEVELOPMENT OF TECHNOLOGY WILL CHANGE THE TEACHING METHODS?

36 % said no 64 % said yes. HOW?- we will use tablets, laptops and other future devices- working in special labs- the number of interactive learning methods will increase- it will be easier for teachers and students to acces information- the student will study more and the teacher will work less!!

4.CAN A TEACHER MAKE A SCHOOL SUBJECT ATTRACTIVE OR MORE ATTRACTIVE TO

STUDENTS?

After an interview, the students wanted to know how it is to be a teacher for a day and how can they make the lessons more interesting and fun for their colleagues!

They tried a traditional aproach and afterwards a modern one, using tehnology.

The results They all concluded that it is harder than it seems,

It is easier to learn by tring to teach someone,

The modern aproach by using pictures was more effective and they all enjoied themselves!

SOME IDEEAS OF OUR STUDENTS ABOUT THE TEACHER!

,, The teacher of the future will be a fan of gadgets.”

,, To teach means to make people more human.”

,, He will awake joy and creativity in our hearts and souls!”

,, The teacher gives us hope that we can be whatever we want!”

,, He is a member of our team!’’

To be a teacher is the most beautiful art in the world! The teacher shapes the future!

Thank you, Comenius!
