future classsroom~_^


this week is where we talk about a future classroom. hmm... of course, for me, classroom in the future is where everything should be technological and advance. the situation will be very different from today's condition of the classroom. it might be more conducive with small amount of pupils in 1 class. But what technology will do for the future schools is a question that many could talk about and we as a teacher will sure have our own opinion on how it should be done. there will be a lot of question that we would like to know about how the future classroom will look like. Would we still have a teacher talking at the front until his or her mouth goes dry and all the poor students will only sit there wondering why they are in that classroom? Does the future classroom mean that every teacher has a laptop and every student has a computer? Does future classroom mean that the teacher will only communicate with the pupils, online without having to go to the classroom? These are some of the questions that come into my mind when imaging the future education location-the classroom.
for me- we can imagine and dream of having a perfect classroom equip with the latest technological gadget of materials. maybe in our time, Smart board is one of the latest invention in classroom teaching materials but who knows in future, Smart board will also become ancient method like what happens to the traditional blackboard in the classroom nowadays. technology will becoming better and better where the invention will become more advance than ever. but will the teacher is up to the challenge? hmm...my worst nightmare when i think about the future is where we as teachers will be no longer needed in the classroom. instead, new and latest inventions such as robots will take over our place. maybe in this era, they had already invented robots and now we can say that robots didn't have any feelings like a real human-being teacher but if one day, they will invented robots with feelings just like a human being, who needs a teacher anymore? then we will lost our job, forever... scary? that's the negative feelings that i have but i know we should think positive, right? anyway, nobody knows what will happen in the future. we can only predict but we don't know about the reality in the future. but for me, as a future teacher, i only hope the very best for my pupils. hopefully in future, pupils will become more productive and successful in their learning process. with that, i rest my case!

erm.. i also have the same dream about my future classroom. the classroom should be equipped with advance technology. one of them is the use of smart board. However,I agree with you that one day it also can be like traditional black board if we are being introduce with another technology. however, hopefully we will have the opportunity to use these technology in our classroon so that our knowledge here can be applied.
