Avatars

The digital avatars seem to make the best teachers, but what happens after you are finished with school?? If the avatars make the best teachers because they aid to your every need and change their expressions because that’s what you want. This is not a positive advantage in the end. The problem comes with a student moves to the real world and learns that not everyone caters to you. This would come to as a big shock if you were taught by a digital avatar, but you learn these lessons with traditional education. Your boss is not going to cater to your needs. You need to learn how to adapt to different styles of learning to make it in the real world. College isn’t just about learning the information in all your classes, but about other lessons you learn because of college. Students learn vital lessons such as, dedication, time management, social skills, and leadership that one couldn’t learn from a digital virtual reality.
