Interesting discussion in the Diane Rehm Show. The acronym is MOOCs.
How far are we from having massive - high quality - accredited degrees for under US$ 100? Imagine the situation where any person willing to study a high quality degree can actually do it. We will have a huge supply of highly educated people and probably not enough demand from the public and private sectors. Will the supply create its own demand? Will we approach the limits of human potential for innovation? But then again, currently there are hundreds of millions who can't use a computer.
