There will be robots in the schools of the future. Some people think that these robots will help students with their homework. The robots will have special software from the school. They will know what the students are studying and they will be able to help them solve problems easily.
未来的学校里将会有机器人。有些人认为机器人会帮助孩子们完成作业。机器人会有学校的特殊软件。它们会知道学生们正在学什么，并且它们能轻轻松松帮助学生们解决问题。
Many teachers do not believe there will be traditional classes or classrooms. Each student in a class might study different materials at the same time. Classrooms might be in open areas and use large LCD screens.
很多老师相信将不会再有传统的课堂和教室。一个班上的每个学生可能会同时学习不同的内容。教室可能在露天并使用大幅的液晶显示屏。
Many people believe schools will use less paper and fewer books. In the future, students may only need to bring an e-book to school. In fact, some schools are already doing this. The e-book will store all their school materials and students can write notes and answers on the screen. They can also search for information on the Internet. Most people think students will be happy to have lighter schoolbags.

Teachers will give homework online in the future. This can help parents follow their child's progress closely. They can check their child's work and their marks through the Internet. The system will also allow students to see teaching videos and notes online. Some people wonder if students will even need to go to schools any more.
未来老师们将会在网上布置家庭作业。这能帮助家长们更紧密地了解孩子们的进步。他们可以通过网络检查孩子们的作业和分数。系统还允许学生在线观看教学录像和笔记。有些人想知道学生们是不是甚至不再需要去上学了。
