Yes, I agree that schools today are more fun than the school in the story. In the story, there is no interaction among students. Doing homework without anybody’s help and writing them in a punch code seems to be a boring idea. Moreover, children need a healthier way of learning to develop an understanding about each other Listening to teachers explaining lessons is always more interesting than reading the entire lesson on a mechanical computer. Also, if any student faces any problem, he can discuss it with the teacher and other kids. It is impossible to discuss problems and situations with a mechanical teacher that is only programmed to teach in a particular manner.
The curiosity of waiting for the marks scored in exams increases when one is sitting in a classroom. It does not have the same effect when the marks are calculated immediately after a test has been taken.
Finally, the friends that you make at school are important. You also learn various qualities in school like obedience, respect, kindness for others, sharing things, sports, and other activities. Therefore, schools today are more fun than the school in the story.

Margie hated school because although the lessons were taught through technical devices but they had to write all the homework and assignment on the paper and had to put them in a slot. She had been doing badly in the geography tests that her mechanical teacher had been giving her. The part that she hated the most was inserting the homework and test papers in the slot on the mechanical teacher. She thought that the old kind of school was a specific place where children came and studied together. They also used to travel together which would be fun and exciting.

Tommy said that the old kind of teachers were men, who taught the students inside a special building. The teachers taught the children in groups and gave them homework and also asked them questions.
