To lower costs, don’t expect professors to lower salaries — from disruptingclass.mhprofessional.com by Michael Horn
Excerpt:
Those who fear that the emergence of technology will replace teachers have their worries misplaced. For the majority of students to be successful, they still need teachers to bring material to life, apply it, facilitate conversations around it and so forth. But the nice thing about disruption is that by enabling a whole new group of people who specialize in teaching to offer these programs, we have an opportunity to enable better learning experiences at lower costs. That’s the promise of disruption. Just don’t expect that promise to materialize within traditional institutions with traditional faculty.
