From a teacher's point of view, smart machines also pose a challenge because the presence of smart machines in the classroom questions traditional teacher and student roles. This paper presents a theoretical basis for the use of smart machines in education. It describes the relative strengths of teachers and smart machines and presents them in a framework, which makes a proposal for an augmented task sharing. In light of human augmentation, the framework proposes ways in which teachers can position themselves with regard to smart machines in a complementary and mutually reinforcing way. It also has implications for knowledge that is necessary for teachers to play an active role in the digital transformation.enconference poster
