Podcast lectures a hit with conscientious university students

Podcast lectures a hit with conscientious university students - :

"'[The US education thinker] David Thornburg said, 'Any teacher that can be replaced by a computer should be.'"

The students at the Queensland University of Technology are actually using the podcasts for back up and revision, but that thought is so valid. I can see a day where technology will replace the classroom and lecture theatre and we shall be duller and sadder for it. It is so important for teachers, at whatever level to teach. That interchange between the teacher and the young is critical in terms of inspiration and a teacher who can be replaced really should be. It's sounds like Nathan Moss is one of those inspirational teachers because he provides insight into how his area of expertise can be functional as well as notional. He practises what he preaches and he is not frightened to try something different in the belief it might not succeed. He must be so happy his students are so appreciative of his efforts and that they did, in fact, succeed.
