Updated: Aug 3

Two children - Margie and Tommy - born in world of the future - studying in virtual classroom in 2157 - wherein robot-teachers teach - computers dominate everything –  tele-books used -  text and pictures in motion on screen.

 

Margie wrote in her diary about how Tommy found a book – that belonged Tommy’s to their grandfather when he was a little kid – the book was in print - in paper-back format.

 

Books were read with the feeling of turning pages - Margie and Tommy found it rather funny – they had tele-books in which text and pictures moved -  books are being stored in computers and digital devices

 

Margie learns that schools then were very different - actual persons or human teachers then taught kids - Now she has only robots which teach her.

 

Margie and Tommy study in a virtual classroom. - robots as teachers - her  Margie’ virtual school is next to her bedroom only - full of electronics devices, robots, and gadgets - computer software teaches her everything – no classmates and no playground

 

She starts wondering - cannot help but think about her grandparents’ days that full of fun with other kids from neighbourhood – education was social process of learning from human teachers – fellow students helped one another in doing homework – she kept wondering about the fun earlier children had.
