If you were a math teacher, you'd likely be concerned too. KA is something that has a chance of fundamentally changing that which teachers have spent considerable time training to do. It's disconcerting. That's why I find the criticism that KA hasn't been inclusive of established educators off base. I imagine that they are intentionally not corrupting their vision with old ideas. Same old ideas = same old results. The modern educational model has had it's day in the sun.
It will need some work revamping and may take years but I think the "flipping" of a classroom is the direction we are headed in. I love the idea of tutorials at home and one on one with a teacher in classroom. btw, my wife is a doctor and did the majority of her lectures in first year med school from home. It was great, she would even speed up the playback so that a 1 hour lecture only took 40 minutes. Many professors pushed back against allowing this. No one likes change, especially when it impacts your ego.
