(1 point)
Do you ever think about what schools will be like in the future? Many people think that
students will study most regular classes such as maths, science and history online. Students
will probably be able to these subjects anywhere using a computer. What will happen if
students have problem with a subject? They might connect with a teacher through live
videoconferencing. Expert teachers from learning centres will give students help wherever they
live.
Students will still take classes in a school, too. Schools will become places for learning
social skills. Teachers will guide students in learning how to work together in getting along
with each other. They will help students with group projects both in and out of the classroom.
Volunteer work and working at local businesses will teach students important life skills
about the world they live in. This will help students become an important part of their
communities. Some experts say it will take five years for changes to begin in schools. Some
say it will take longer. Most people agree, though, that computers will change education the
way TVs and telephones changed life for people all over the world years before.
