This made me feel funny in the pantsFollow

So you're saying you've got nothing. Okay then!

Wasn't that the entire point? "We can do the exact same thing or even better!" and all that?

Right now, your argument is as solid as me saying "People can learn from books so books made the classroom obsolete." Seeing as how all you've given has been toys designed to complement what is being taught in the class, you're offering the exact same argument.

Really, you embarass yourself less when you just type fifteen posts of gibberish on a Saturday night.

Essentially.

It's already been touched on, but it took a page and a half for the slow people to realize that everything which is taught in a classroom can similarly be taught on-line. For a page and half, you and the dolts couldn't come up with a single example of an educational concept learned in the classroom that can't be similarly learned on-line from the entire content range of K-PhD, even though you and the dolts claimed you could. If you got an 'A' understanding of that concept, we can move along to the finer detailed comparison of the relative strengths of Classroom vs. Internet. If you live in Tokyo, start running through the streets screaming.

The fact that teachers use the material which is on-line shows that that material is better than what they can provide themselves in class. Else why use it?

You yourself said smaller class sizes are better. In other words, the smaller the student:teacher ratio, ceterus paribus, the better the quality. Say the typical class size is 25 students for one teacher. All the material which is put together on-line, the pc educational games, the video lectures, etc. (which is constantly getting better) dramatically, incredibly reverses that ratio. Before: X teachers teaching Y students times Z classrooms. After: all the teachers teaching every single student in one classroom of one student simultaneously. Of course, we fire the duplicate inefficiency, we get rid of the lesser quality, and keep the best quality for all. The synthetic effect is that every teacher of the highest quality is individually teaching every student. We go from an effective ratio of something like 25:1 to 1:1,000,000. Your own, personal, Sokr8s.

I'll just stop there for now, since that's more than enough to show better quality. You don't just lose. You're obliterated. Capiche?

I'll sip on some sizzurp to that.

Apparently you missed earlier in the thread that once one student ask a specific question and that specific question is answered, the answer is siumutaneously available to all in the archives. Never saw a FAQ on a forum board?

Not to mention you can also ask the same question on-line and get answer(s) plural from more than one teacher.

Bring out the Master Shogen.

I think the Mater Shogen's sleeping.

Well I guess you're just gonna have to go wake him up now won't you?

this is just one reandom thing i pulled out of this thread.


You say that discipline and learning punctuality and other such things benificial to holding a job is not neccesary and that IF a parent DOES want he child to learn some discipline then they should just ship them to the military instead?

riiight

Good, it's good to see game recognizing Game.





Glad you finally got it. Fuck the Doors 5 to One, 25:1 will get you 1:1,000,000. No need to address or undress pure B3aUty.

I understand. If nobody else can hear you, feel your pain, you can make up for it with a lot of posted reading material.

I'll get back to you on any pertinent points you might have on Tuesday.



And thus, we should take your conclusions against the feasibility of on-line education seriously?

Come on down! You could win a beautiful trailer in a park!

Take a look at my students. So much smarter than the Asylum forum=4.
