Whats really amazing is that this experiment would have been a first of its kind in nearly 100s of years. I personally think that our class based education systems are languishing at some 100 year based minima right now w.r.t effectiveness. Present systems don't take into account: 1. Most subjects require different modalities of learning. Teaching computer science via lecture format? seriously? 2. Students have different economic situations which usually means real demands on their time and attention. The system HAS TO cater to this to be more effective. 3. As the environment changes the teaching methodology has to change. Right now phones and tablets really inhibit concentration. So something to counter this would be effective for all other classes. 4. Schools primary function is a safe place to keep your kids. Their inability to accept this makes them stuff the day with classes.
