Lectures could be, but tutorials are nowhere near as good online.
- cuteboy19 4y agoRather the issue is that there is a lot of garbage tutorials out there. It takes a lot of effort the find out the correct tutorials
- dave333 4y agoTutorials don't really need paid tutors if peer to peer Q+A like a discussion forum is available. Another concept that could improve things is team education - you get marked on your own achievements but also partially on how your whole team does - so you have incentive to help others along.
- HKH2 4y agoYeah I don't think tutors do all that much if everyone is motivated. What I meant was that conversations in person are often more productive, especially when you're trying to get motivated.
- dave333 4y agoIn a game world motivation can be generated by access to the next room, level, whatever. Or, if you finish your fractions drill problems, you can play XYZ for an hour.
- HKH2 4y agoI'm talking about being motivated enough to be willing to ask questions that may make you look stupid etc. I don't think the system you're proposing would work for open-ended subjects.
- dave333 4y agoAI professors will soon be as good at teaching as the real thing and nobody need feel stupid talking to a program.

- CamperBob2 4y agoThey will be. The distinction between lectures and tutorials will blur once every student has what amounts to their own personal professor/TA. "Hey Siri, could you go back over step 3 for me? Where did you get the X-squared term in the denominator?"
