we are in 2018 ad all industries have
been transformed by the digital
revolution all industry no one industry
is still resisting this revolution
education can robots replace human
teachers to talk about this issue I
decided to approach the problem through
three questions the first question is
what is the digital revolution because
we have to put the topic back into some
context the second question is what can
this revolution bring to education and
finally why is taking so long for this
revolution to be implemented in our high
schools so question 1 what is the
digital revolution before the 19th
century we had artisans who produced
unique good through intellectual and
physical efforts after the 19th century
demographic sploded people have to find
a unique and standardized methods to
produce these goods and services
quantity was increased at the expense of
quality it was the industrial paradigm
quantity increased quality decreased
doesn’t that remind you of anything
education of course you find yourself
sitting at a desk undergoing the same
pedagogy as all the other students while
we are all different in the face of
learning can Robinson has already talked
about it
in his work but it is impressive to see
how deeply rooted the industrial
paradigm is in education for example the
school bell in a school like in a
factory another example the grouping by
class but year of manufacturing etc in
shorts the joys of India of the
industrial paradigm in education and
then comes this new paradigm the digital
revolution and it hopes we will be able
to increase the quantity while
increasing the quality indicators we
will be able to customize each user’s
experience the question that arises is
therefore what does this revolution
bring to education and for this I take
two example that really happened to me
as a teacher I’m a math and economics
teacher and in my questions I like to
put 80% of simple questions you know you
used to do the basics you understand the
basics and you will succeed I also put
10% of slightly more difficult questions
you have to study and understand the
material a little bit more and finally
10% of very hard questions to know who
have the best understandings of my
material and this is what I have
observed after typing on my results on
my computer in the first second and
third class who have the questions the
same day very few got the difficult
question right and then I discovered the
anomaly the exact moment where my
students shared the questions to the
you can guess one of the first
advantages of digital technologies you
can get information like who did his
homework and in class who cheated on his
neighbor when do you students share your
questions all of this is good
information to know as a teacher now I
will tell you about the second
experience suppose I give you an
equation the solution is x equals 7 out
of 15 students 6 fonts the correct
answer do from nothing it happens and
then
treefon X equal minus 3 for fund X equal
to these last two groups have wrong
answers but several students have found
the same thing why they cheated no they
have the same weaknesses for example the
first group with X equal minus 3 had
some troubles with negative numbers the
second group is struggling to add up
fractions so if we know the students
mistakes we know what they show Cummings
are and can offer them the best antidote
you see how a teacher can greatly be
helped by his computer he has some
information about his students
for example imagine he arrives or she
arrives in a class and can focus only on
the most difficult questions the
feedback will be better and faster and
the students can be directly redirected
to the correct exercise that is that is
so the question is then why is this
revolution taking so long to be
implemented in our I schools one of the
main reasons I think it’s because
teacher are afraid of bringing this
intelligence into classroom they’re
afraid to be replaced by these robots
but I think the problem is poorly post
and I will show you that few months ago
I saw a conference with French engineers
and American engineers who have to sell
a car French engineer would sell that
like you know with this new technology
you can compress the gases and with a
spark the Pistons will move and blah
blah blah and blah blah blah
you know all this boring and technical
stuff when we’re an American would say
these objects allows you to go from A to
B in five minutes amazing isn’t it you
see the difference now ask a teacher
what is the teaching profession you know
the teaching profession is to teach and
to teach well is to find the best
pedagogy for all my students wrong think
back to the best teacher you ever met
the one who made you love math or
literature was it really his pedagogy or
her pedagogy that made such an
impression on you I don’t think so I
think it was his or her ability to give
you attention emotional attention it was
his or her ability to give you with the
joke let’s go let’s do another to
attract the sizes
it was his or her ability to tell you
that no you did not said at Matt my
initial question was will robots ever
replaced human teachers I don’t think so
I think AI or robots is complementary to
human teachers when AI will take care of
doing all mechanical repetitive and
boring tasks teachers will take care of
doing his real job more effectively and
what is the real job of a teacher what
is the teaching profession the teaching
profession is to give love thank you [Applause]
