Everything said in the article and much, much more has been said before by Roger C. Schank in his 2004 book "Making Minds Less Well Educated Than Our Own". See especially Chapter 20 titled "Toward a new conception of Education": http://www.amazon.com/Making-Minds-Less-Well-Educated/dp/080...

One difference: Schank believes that, since the best online courses will be created by the best physicists, chemists, psychologists, etc., the need for local teachers will change. They will become mentors, guidance counselors and coaches whom students visit when they need more assistance than the online courses offer.
