Imagine putting a high definition 3D television set inside cool goggles. In the movie, moviegoers often see the world through “the terminator” robot’s vision. As this robot looks at the world, text appears to show him targets, where to go, and other information. Some even have sound built into them.

Understandably, there is still some hesitation at the idea of using this technology, as education professionals fear the day robots will replace teachers. With the technology still in its emergent phase, teachers who are interested in these solutions may also find it difficult to gather definitive best practices.

Teachers are definitely trying, but they are just trying to do what they have always done with new technology. Now, let’s say, for one class, maybe they build a map of the Silk Road instead , and they get a Sphero robot and they code the Silk Road with that robot over a two-week period.

Automation and robotics are already disrupting the world of work, as we know it. Definitions of digital leadership vary and have pretty much become a semantic issue.
