I have been sampling (and downloading) a few lecture series on academic earth. I think the materials are good and the effort to put them online is highly commendable. What reinforces my idea that DE/DL is THE way, is that in no way I can see how such lectures (obviously hand-picked to represent the best) could justify the extortionate tuition fees students are liable to pay to the likes of Yale, Harvard etc etc.
Honestly, folks...who are we kidding?
I am NOT saying that academics should wander like stoned, barefooted red Christs preaching their gospel for free, but on which ground in hell do we justify the difference from say an Athabasca kind of fee (not the least expensive, by the way ) and a Yale or Harvard or Oxford one?!
