The Fun They Had by Isaac Asimov

The Fun They Had by Isaac Asimov

It was 2157. Schools, not school. Teachers, not teachers; teachers a computer and students only one in lesson. In the story characters found a book from our time and story tell differences our and their times.

Similarities: Both of them can teach somethings and make test.
Differences: Computers is too electronic and they can't feel emotions and they can't help to students about their trouble. In the future not communication and friendly place but our time social and friendly
