This reminds me of Good Will Hunting: "You dropped a hundred and fifty grand for an education you coulda got for a buck fifty in late charges at the public library" A professor of mine is very interested in solving the cost problem of education, but internet-based learning is weak in a number of areas. He is well known for having an extremely painful automated grading system for Comp Sci homework, but that does not work nearly so well for other course (e.g. higher math or essays). The article claims they have solved this by peer review, but I would be interested to hear how they are making that work. One of the other problems is the questionable value of degrees and grades in the first place: we as a society need to start evaluating people/employees based on prior results, like internships. So yeah, more online learning is a good thing, but I doubt we will have online universities truly overtaking four year brick and mortar universities any time soon.
