My masters program consists of being told to read 12 chapters and take a test in 3 weeks. I pay about $10,000 dollars a semester for this so called "education". There's no instruction and little to no guidance. When students do get an occasional video, it's basically just the instructor reading a powerpoint with no actual "teaching" involved. You sir are what education is meant to be. You have a special gift. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. I don't know if you truly understand the difference you are making in the lives of so many. I wish you so much wealth, health, happiness, and good fortune.

Tertiary education will change. Universities will stop paying lecturers to produce lecture content, instead they will subscribe to professional production companies (Some already exist online and you've probably watched them), the university will choose the topics they want according to the unit curriculum and learning outcomes, and the lecture videos will be made available to the students. Lecturers in future will just facilitate face to face learning during tutorials etc.

The urinary system of the human body consists of two kidneys, two ureters, the bladder and a single urethra. The kidneys are located on the posterior wall of the abdomen at waist level. Each kidney is roughly 10 cm long and 5 cm wide, and is encased in a fibrous outer capsule called the renal capsule👍👍
