The mechanical teachers are very different from the teachers we have today. They are not men. They are a sort of gadgets. They are attached to the television screen. Their speed can be adjusted according to the age or mental level of a child. The teachers don't have to go to school to teach. They are kept at the child's home. The flash the lesson on the television screen and the child learn from them. They also give the child homework to do. They check the child's progress by giving them tests.
The school rooms in the story are also very different. They are not like the rooms in our schools. They are the rooms in the house of different children. Each child has his own classroom in his house. The child keeps mechanical teacher in his room and learns from it.
