That "mostly" hides a lot. A good teacher will prepare this lesson in a context: context of his pupils, their abilities,
their knowledge of other material, etc.
Centralized version will have none of that.

- Jabbles 14y agoI don't see how an individual teacher has the advantage. Most classes have a huge range in ability and any lesson must be suitable for all. A centralised system could (in my dreams) deliver more than one version of each lesson and determine (from their enormous amounts of data) which lesson each child will benefit most from. Of course if I'm dreaming that much I should point out that with each child able to learn at their own pace a single physical classroom could hold many different levels of the same subject at once, with children from different schools working together...
- randomdata 14y agoIt is no coincidence that the biggest proponents of this style of learning have strong AI backgrounds. Their vision is a centralized system that can deliver that highly customized material on a per-student basis. It is still early days, but the technology has a lot of room to evolve over time.
