The project is critically looking at the ethical issues involved in inviting machines to teach children. The primary objective of this project is to speculate a future where machines teach our children and become part of daily life alongside other technological advances.

The three constructed narratives tries to explain how the system operates. They explore how the system interacts and gathers information from children and their surroundings. Gathered information can help the system evolve and improve its teaching.

As part of school and home education, the system uses traditional social psychology experiments to understand, evaluate and teach complex human emotions. These include lessons on morals, building character, concepts of gratification and ethics.  The films showcase the four experiments that were conducted between a child and a machine, where machines can engage with and influence children’s development.
