A robot teacher.

In Japan , from university of Tokyo , a science professor has invented such a robot who is able to teach students in different languages.It teaches the student in the same manner a human teacher do , beside teaching it can also mark the attendance of pupil , develop their interest in studies through a number of learning activities .Name of the robot is "saya" and it seems like a female teacher due her dressing.Saya will help them in learning different languages as well as she will give them homework.According to Japanese government by 2015 there will be atleast a single robot in each house, it will help the poor people,and will perform all the work as a human being.Although this development is beneficial from perspective point of view,but there is something in all our minds, will robot be able to understand the human psychology ? will it be able to develop a friendly relationship with its student?will it be able to handle all the student as all the students are different from each other in their thinking , their intellectual level , their way of doing different works .It will only performs those work and think up to that point which the scientists have feed into its mind as data.ALMIGHTY ALLAH has given human being a precious wealth of thinking, human being has thought ,deducted, experimented and created a robot but after all it is machine , it will neither be best teacher , it will neither be able to handle its students as human being .Will parents be satisfied by a robot teacher ? will they make their children to study in a school ,where robot teaches?student life and in the beginning ,school life is the basis of  building a good person and a good citizen, will robot be able to build their character ?will be able to identify emotional, intellectual and physical issues regarding with the students.Will robot have the patience, understandings and acceptance of all students, will it be able to treat students with respect and fairness?No not at all , I don't think so, a machine could not do this ,it can very well teach the lesson in the book but could not be able to bring up a good soul inside the students ,if robot will do this then there is no doubt the world will become materialistic,selfish,expedient,money oriented, possession oriented and greedy.Just think!you have a brain to think and explore.
