Silicon Valley venture aims to challenge Ivy League

A new 'Ivy League' level school which uses interactive technology to deliver remote teaching at a quarter of the price of other elite, private American universities will begin teaching in 2014. Students will live and study together, in a new model that that CEO Ben Nelson hopes will revolutionise the education industry.
