I guess it depends on each person and how they learn. I wouldn't have a problem with teachers using it as another learning technique to teach grammar.
I was a complete bookworm growing up and learned grammar that way. I never learned how to take sentences apart and don't know grammar rules. My first college level English class was an eye opener as I had to study some grammar rules. By that time, my grasp of grammar was solid and learning the rules and terms did not help me at all. I proofread as part of my work and can tell you when something is not written correctly.
Lots of ways to skin a cat.
