Very related: Education Automation: Freeing the scholar to return to his studies by R. Buckminster Fuller

Just a historical note, from 1964, a book by Buckminster Fuller: Education Automation: Freeing the scholar to return to his studies
Even back then we had the technology and opportunity to do this. The gist: get the best (most captivating) teachers (perhaps coached by the best researchers) and record them / broadcast them to students.
