Bill Gates is on another mission to persuade everybody he doesn't know a goddamned thing about teaching and learning.
Can you imagine teachers being "rated" by their students or by people with no knowledge about teaching after watching a video? It boggles the mind.
Well, we know all education will eventually be done online. Kids will be staying home or be in centers to be babysat by teacher aides, while the "real" teachers will be pennies-a-day "instructors" in China. And since all learning will be done online, somebody is going to profit from any online software.
Enter Bill Gates.
Right now, online "public" or "charter" schools are limited in terms of enrollment in the various states. But as states become more and more starved for funds, watch them junk the enrollment restrictions. The vultures will then pick over the bones of what was once a vibrant public education system.
