There is roughly zero percent chance I would have paid any attention to online lectures/classes when I was in grade school or high school. I couldn’t even pay attention to online classes during grad school trying to get my Masters. I already didn’t do my homework or study for tests in school, so the only way I learned was from being in person and listening to the teacher. If I would have been expected to get most of my learning from online courses, I would be in a very different place in life right now.
Not to mention that people forget School is a social playground too. Education is only one part of it, making friends and dealing with the many situations that come your way is what makes people grow up. It’s scary that some kids would learn in front of a computer rather than in a class.
