Should we start replacing schools with video conferences?

Seriously. Why do we need to bring kids to brick buildings where they are forced to mingle with hordes of stupid people? So they can learn where to buy pot?
They could just run real time video conferences where thousands of kids could watch lectures from the best teachers in the nation, and even pause for questions and tabulate the best questions so the brilliant teacher can answer them. Do we really need an army of teachers, buses and drivers, janitors, administrators, and millions of acres of real estate, just so we can limit classroom sizes? The real dummies can go watch their classes in a public tutoring session if they need help I guess, but most would not need that. WTF man we're in the internets age, why are we only using it for delivering porn to the schools?

once true broadband is truly affordable (100MBps at less than $40/mo) and is seriously widely available, i think that schools WILL do just that...

Yah like true 4G not that crap they're peddling as 4G now. Wouldn't even need wires. Just issue a portable school device so you can watch classes while you sell some meth on the corner.

Then all kids would become like ACF, hermited sheltered with zero social skills and living life in an MMO somewhere.

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

Think of what you are talking about.
Kids with access to video equipment and high speed data transfer....no one will be watching the teacher, they will be downloading video games, porn, and pirated movies.... and sexting each other.

Exactly, let me guess wildly, jd has no kids.
It is hard enough to get them out of bed to go school and do homework and etc etc etc. so lets let them stay home on the internet unmonitored all day.
Brilliant.

It's tempting. But at the same time they need to learn to socialize with others. it's a catch 22.

I don't buy the notion that school is where we learn to socialize. I learned to socialize outside of school. In school teachers were always crabbing about people talking in class. Ask me, I say there is way too much socializing going on. That's why the Chinese are passing us.
