Great points. And by the way, we churn out content everyday. The value of that content manifests itself in many ways. The new mantra should be:-
1. Co-Creation
2. Co-Innovation
3. OpenSource
4. Value addition through engagement from the above three.

> 1. If a lecturer’s course content remains static for 2 semesters then he / she has no business teaching that unit. Education is dynamic, you cannot use the same content year in year out!
> 2. Lectures MUST allocate a LIVE SESSION every week to discuss with students (mandatory to attend) the content that was to be covered that week.
