Can Computers Replace Teachers?

The Computer Or The Teacher?

The latest innovation of technology is the computer and today, its best utility can be seen in the process of imparting education specially through e- classes or net classes where one can be updated at one's own wish. 

Undoubtedly, the computer is adept at solving complex mechanisms but the question lies- Can it be really superior to the human brain that has invented it? Perhaps, the memory of a computer may be challenged with that of a human brain- its novelty, uniqueness, and wit maybe beyond comprehension, but, can it really match the passions, feelings, emotions and sentiments of a human teacher? The careful consideration, sympathetic, understanding, mutual reciprocation, exchanges of affections and concern delivered by a human teacher can never

be replaced by the machine. Indeed, it's true that the teacher's foremost duty is to teach- impart lessons, provide solutions in which the computer is unparallel but then, who will imbibe within the student values and ideals, instill him with courage, fortitude and confidence? The patience of a teacher, who best understands his students, can never be matched with that of a computer. 

Computer is undoubtedly a sophisticated machine but it is
again a proof of human excellence, human wit and understanding and hence, surely computers can never replace the human teacher whose brain is always on a continuous search for new ideas, noble concepts which he uses to make the computer more sophisticated, exact and precise.
