I really think once you teach the kids the basic ABC's and 123's they almost could learn more efficiently on their own. Radical statement to make, but I think the "traditional" education model, may be in its golden age now.

There are other imporant things you gain from going to school besides math, science, etc, imo.
Social skills, frienships, recess, etc.
I think it would be more healthy for kids to continue learning at schools rather than the internet, imo.
