It is possible that the internet or modern technology will replace books soon but I don't that it can replace human teacher. A books is a number of pieces of paper, usually with words printed on them, which are fastened together and fixed inside a cover of stronger paper of cardboard. Books contain information, stories and poetry. In short, a book is the material that is being used to teach a student. It can possibly be replaced by mobile phone, laptop and tablet.
 
Modern technology would most likely upstage books, but it can never take the place of a human teacher. Children learn better with a human touch and most of the time they look up to the teachers as role models or parent figures. Also, in my opinion students are more productive when they have a direct contact with the teacher and are prone to achieve better results. Lastly, the emotional side of interaction between a student and a teacher can never be accomplished by technology.
 
Who knows. For me nothing really is impossible I feel like technology is growing fastly and like things that are seemingly impossible before are now real like robots, internet connection where you access information just by you being at home, so I think maybe it would replace or that maybe people will just choose to stay at home and study instead of going to schools.
 
I don't think that the internet and modern technology will ever replace teachers. Books maybe, but teachers never. Interaction is neccessary, interaction between student and teacher. And I don't think that modern technology will ever reach to that point of perfection. Teacher is not just a person who should answer on only streight simple questions. It is not something that can be programmed. Human mind made a computer, it is not reverse, and never will be.
 
As you can observe around us, technology is rapidly progressing and it's not stopping and will never be. Internet and technology is taking the whole world to modernazation. It's evolving and changing the life of all the people. Everything is not impossible to happen right now with the technology we have. So regarding the question, will the internet and technology replaces books and teachers?, my answer is yes it will.

Today, the internet almost completely replaces traditional books. The Internet is mostly and widely used compared to traditional books. Content of books can now be found in the internet. Some schools provide tablets with internet and electronic books in it for faster learning and faster access to different topics. Regarding teachers, I may say, human teachers is still the best right now agains't internet and technology. Unless in the near future their will be an invention, an AI that will completely mimic a human just like on movies which is not impossible to happen, then that will be the day that internet and technology will completely replaces teachers and books that we have right now.
 
As we gear-up to enter the age of automation and robotics, most people fear that certain jobs will be replaced as talks and discussions on artificial intelligence go on. In the near future, I imagine that 'Siri' can be programmed to teach all types of subjects at all levels. Learning materials, sources and information will be made available in the cloud as we reach singularity. However, I still believe that there are jobs and processes that are better off with human intervention, and this includes teaching. This particular type of job requires compassion to students and building personal relationships. Human interaction will always be essential in learning and will always be part of our core, and that is why human teachers will never be replaced.
 
Books today are slowly being replaced into a digital text on our phones which is good for the environment because it reduces the number of trees being cut down, which will eventually be converted into papers. But teachers that are being replaced with robots, I think for me it is somewhat unlikely to happen because a teacher does not only teach but also motivate, encourage, and acts as a second parent to the students. And teachers could also share insightful experiences with their students and learn lessons from their life stories.
 
Books might be replaced but I doubt that it is soon that they will also replaced the teachers. I don't know about the future but as of now and for the next decades I believe human teachers will stay as very essential part of our society. Human connection is very different than technology. Humans can feel and have emotion that can adjust with different types of students.

Technology is created to help us not replace us. Although some jobs can be, teaching is just a different area. It is very complex and I don't think that robot teachers are very ideal.
 
I don't think the internet or modern technology will replace books and teachers entirely but instead they'll work hand in hand. The technology's basic purpose in our life is to make things easier fo us. That purpose cannot replace real people. Technology has limitations unlike a human's mind. Because of that, both will still be useful even for ages and years from now.
 
I believe that technology would replace the books in the future but not the human teachers, because teaching is never been easy and also learning online is so hard, where it is hard to communicate online unlike in the classroom when you are just 1 meter away. Salute to those teachers to do everything just to keep on producing a good students and a good community workers. There is nothing better for human teachers.
