Why are we still doing education the same way it was done in the 1880s? The best technology in the 1880s was books and classrooms led by a professor. Our universities today look identical to that.
Now we can build a university online where every lesson is taught by the absolute best teacher in that one narrow area. Every new lesson you do, maybe 5 to 10 per day, would be taught by the very best teacher for that one particular topic. A different teacher from who taught the lesson could even prepare the quizzes for that topic.
Alternatively, I have been working for the last 8 months on YouTube to give myself a university level education in the construction trades. I have watched hundreds of hours of educational content on dirt work, concrete pours, framing, drywall, roofing, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, tile work, and finish features. I have built a shed using basically residential framing, and I am working on a second one now. Following this I'm going to build a small residence with a large garage, then I'm going to build a large residence. I am just doing this for my own hobby basically, but anybody who wanted to become a home builder can now do so just with the content online.
