> It obviously doesn't scale

Peer teaching/grading potentially scale out.

Several universities [1] scale out personalized instruction and interactive grading by hiring students from previous cohorts and paying them either in course credit (taking a "course" that involves teaching students in the current cohort) or at a low rate (possibly subsidized by financial aid) comparable to other on-campus student jobs.

(I want a browser extension linking doi to google scholar btw)
