Many of the comments here and to a large extent in the general dive training is that everyone need to do the same thing as the least skilled and least motivated diver student. Everybody need to listen to the teacher explaining something because some people cant read and understand it from a book or because some people dont care about learning this stuff. It seems to be more important how to avoid that unmotivated people get trough the system without the proper skills and knowledge compared to help learn motivated people how to dive.
e-learning or just reading the book toghether with a short session with an instructor would most likely be a good way to learn the theory for a lot of people.
Wouldn't it be better to actually try to asses the knowledge level of the student in some real way instead of saying that you need to sit and listen here for a couple of hours? A difficult test would be a start.
I also believe the standards and the theory content follows from what I said above. The standards and theory are made to fit what the least skilled and motivated diver can learn during a short course.
