Odd, I learned a lot from my Profs in lectures(at least as an undergraduate). In the end, the student has to sit down with the book and solve problems or he won't really know the subject, but that doesn't prohibit the Professor from being a teacher.

I'm sorry, but if a Prof. decides to show me videos during lecture time, I would wonder what his value-add is to the whole process. Why have a Professor when a less skilled person could do the job--at a much lower cost?
