The School of the Future : Without Teachers or Classrooms ?
Léwis Verdun
Editeur: Five Minutes Editions
The meteoric rise of intelligent tutors and learning platforms has revived an old fantasy : what if tomorrow's school had neither teachers nor classrooms ?
This succinct book dives into the heart of the educational revolution. In a few short years, AI has evolved from novelty to essential tool : it personalises exercises, corrects instantly and promises significant time savings. Some schools even entrust algorithms with entire courses, under the watchful eye of coaches who support students. At the same time, the teaching profession is in a historic crisis and inequalities in access to digital tools threaten to widen gaps. How can innovation be reconciled with equity ? What safeguards are needed to protect privacy and ethics ? And above all, what will remain of the human role in learning ?
Drawing on recent studies and international experiences, this book offers a nuanced analysis. It shows that the future will hinge on an alliance between technology and pedagogy : robust infrastructure, large scale teacher training, data respecting practices and hybrid models that combine AI with human presence.
Readers will find concrete ideas for anticipating the metamorphosis of schooling and joining the debate. A call to action to ensure that education remains a space of knowledge and humanity.
