It will become more and more difficult to motivate students to learn facts. Why should they, if they have instant access to everything. Problem is, building understanding usually requires to learn some basic facts. Same with skills like writing, drawing, languages, researching facts - you have to train them (my daughter learned drawing mainly by copying photos of things that she liked). Where to find motivation for learning anything if you can generate images, video, stories, and get all the facts from the machine? I have no idea what the future school should look like. But perhaps going back to the "basics" without any computer support will be the best approach.
