  I think it is not possible that video lectures actually replace teachers. video lectures just a technical advantage to students. for example if we have video lecture then we revise our topic or that particular lecture any time.which was not possible in past .I am very positive towards video lectures like idea it bridge technology to teaching.

  Video lectures are not so personal as teacher's interaction with student. So they can be extra info source to a student but they can never replace students

  I think videos can replace *Lecturer* but not the Teacher.

  Very true #-Link-Snipped-#
  A teacher has a personal interaction with his/her students and understands them well and the way how their problem can be solved.
  But the video lectures are a few hours studies with students which can be useful but not personal as in class..

  A video lecture is a one way communication while a lecture delivered in person can be a two way communication process. In presence of a teacher, you can listen and ask questions. The teacher will respond to it. The teacher may ask questions and hears you out.
  
  Having a video conference for delivering lectures is a better way to do it. So the divide created by physical presence is bridged and at the same time it allows enough interactions

  For many students, teachers are their biggest inspiration which tends them to show more interest towards the subject!!! Each student has his/her own interest towards specific subjects which is mainly because of the teacher who handles it...but in video lectures there would'nt be any difference relating to subjects ,in which learning becomes boring!!!

  It's all depends on what you are learning.
  
  For example: If you want to learn mathematics or programming, you need an expert professor who can teach you the basics in the manner in which you will understand.
  
  If you want to learn about the mechanics of a car, or about the various modules through which it is built, a video is the best option.
  
  However you learn, the amount of interest level a student can put forth to understand a subject and the amount of patience and time he/she takes to sit and actually study will all depend upon the grasping power of each individual.
  
  P.S.: In my opinion, even if you take less time to study, concentrate on it completely, and you'd definitely understand better.
  
  Lectures often turn out to be boring because we don't concentrate enough - we are humane after all!!!
