Robot teachers could perform many routine classroom tasks like lesson preparation, teaching, grading assignments, and keeping records. However, teachers will still be needed. While robots can deliver academic content, they lack human qualities like empathy, caring, counseling, and dealing with social/disciplinary issues. Teachers are uniquely able to mentor students, communicate with parents, and support students' overall well-being and development. In the future, teachers and robots may work together with teachers focusing on human elements of education and robots assisting with standardized classroom tasks.
