Salman Khan: Let’s use video to reinvent education — March 2011<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Salman Khan talks about how and why he created the remarkable Khan Academy, a carefully structured series of educational videos offering complete curricula in math and, now, other subjects. He shows the power of interactive exercises, and calls for teachers to consider flipping the traditional classroom script — give students video lectures to watch at home, and do “homework” in the classroom with the teacher available to help.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\nBefore rushing to a quick take\/judgment on this, hear him out. Turning over more control to the students<\/strong> during the relaying of the information makes sense to me. They can pause, rewind, fast forward, etc.\u00a0 They can re-listen to the lecture again and again, without affecting the flow of a typical face-to-face classroom. Then they come into class and can get help on their homework, instantly and when they need the assistance.<\/span><\/p>\n
