Salman Khan: Let's Use Videos to Reinvent Education


      Khan has developed a system to help students learn at their own pace. Not a new concept, but a new way of doing it. The students can log onto the system online on their own computers because no access codes are needed, etc. In addition, he proposes the reality of not leaving children behind that haven't totally mastered the tasks that are being taught before moving on to the next subject. Khan Academy sounds like it would appeal to a broad range of students and integrating the video lectures as homework would free up more classroom time to see what the students do not understand.
