A good read indeed but it kinda makes me wonder. Man, there were some classes that I was GOOD at but would not have done as well in if I didn't go home and go over handouts or memorize information from textbooks. Biology comes to mind.

I also know that educational pyschologists have said that you need to repeat a task 5 times before you remember how to do it.

Interesting idea but I would imagine there would be a flip to that coin.

I do agree that the time saved is put to better use with friends and family. And I can also say that up to this point, there were a GREAT number of things in various subjects (math in particular) that I don't use at all on a daily basis, it does make you wonder what the point was.
