The teacher then delivers the content for that class. It might be a lecture, video, or reading from a text. Then the students do an activity with that newly learned content. Then the teacher offers more work to practice the content usually in the form of homework. Generally this is a standard day in a classroom of a traditional teacher.<\/p>\n<p>Do you see anything in this example that cannot be done by Artificial Intelligence or a Virtual World? Here are five things that an AI\/VR school system can do just as easily as a traditional teacher.
