How can intelligent avatars help educational organisations

Well, they could allow them to provide as many teachers as they have students. Just imagine having an unlimited number of teachers who get no salary...

“Real” teachers may find giving and grading assignments, assessments, marking and answering hundreds of repetitive questions boring and tiring. Intelligent avatars could more efficiently handle all those, giving the teachers more free time. Learning with an avatar would be as well beneficial to students, who would finally get enough individual attention. Students could ask as many questions as they’d want as often as they’d want. With intelligent avatars students would have access to their virtual teacher 24/7.

We’re facing a rapid expansion of e-learning, so maybe virtual teachers are really the future of education.
