Let's use video to reinvent education - Salman Khan 

I love this guy, he really changed education for me.. now i sleep in chemistry waiting the class to end to go home and watch a video that actually makes me understand.

I had pretty much given up on math before I found Khan Academy. Brought me back on track and next year I'll start my education in astronomy. Math isn't an obstacle anymore, it's a challenge.

Just his voice alone is associated with pure knowledge for me!

#respect for Mr Khan...you are a gem!

As a senior citizen taking Algebra in college, let me say, I would not have succeeded in my last two Algebra classes were it not for Khan Academy! I LOVE Sal! I can *understand* Sal!

He taught me how to factor and helped me pass my algebra test in 9th grade. Sal is AWESOME.

@10:19 Oh my god, it's like the skill tree in a role-playing game!

One key factor of Khan's effectiveness, apart from his superior knowledge, is how his voice sounds patient and caring on his videos. He stands out from among the hundreds of youtube teachers out there. Well done mate! Im re-learning math again and loving it

One of the best TED talks ever - until we help our students master what they are learning, we'll continue to promote students who are just average in their education when they could be masters. Thank you so much for this phenomenal talk, Mr. Khan!

absolutely brilliant. I actually stumbled upon Khan academy last year when I started nursing school. It is the best thing ever. I wish my kids school would start this.

I love Khan academy. I'm an engineer now, but due to some scheduling conflicts back in high school, I never got to take trig. I was taking physics, the teacher also taught calc, and he waived the trig requirement since I knew the basics from physics. Needless to say, I had a lot of holes in my math knowledge and Khan academy did wonders in filling those.

Such an inspiration. This man is a big part of why I went into the field of education.

Thank you, Salman Khan. You have changed my life. You are my hero.

Khan is a true american hero, he helps me understand ap chem and ap calc.

Thanks Sal! You make learning fun

This made me want to have kids just to be able to tutor them using KhanAcademy. It's genius and should be applied everywhere.

If only more schools embraced this! This is MIND BLOWING!

I totally agree the Indian education board must wrap the education around Khan academy who has actually done a fabulous job

God bless you Salman Khan Will go down in history as someone who helped learning revolutionize and meet the internet.

he deserves an award for propelling Teaching to a different degree. Khan academy just works. Period.

I have known about the Kahn Academy for some time and have appreciated it's approach to self paced learning; but didn't realize the extend to which they have implemented monitoring and tracking of student participation. I spent much of my career teaching technical topics and developing technical personnel and intuitively used some of these ideas and fully appreciate them. The student monitoring techniques development was teacher driven - and as such - I believe any teacher would love to implement this approach to learning with their students!! Personally - I think it should be implemented in all public education - pre-school thru PhD !!

Thank you, based Ray Romano clone. Nah in all seriousness, this guy is super smart, talented, and innovative. He's doing a great job.

I want this in every school in the world, people making these in different languages and get this asap into every school possible!

Sal Kahn is the best!

Please put this on Xbox 360 PS3 and Wii, I think gamers would play for Digital Trophies and bragging rights about their math skills.

Quarantine forced school to do this. And immediately, I rediscovered the old spark I had with chemistry and physics. It’s been 7 years since this video was uploaded on RU-vid and only now I’m seeing it’s effect and I love it. I wish we can keep it this way.

Every teacher should be taught to talk humbly like him 😊

Amazingly well done, i can clearly see the effort that has been put into this and that the his true future potential

I gave my niece your application of KG. I am happy that she doesn't need any another support

A decade later and this video keeps me speechless.

Khan academy is what we need to be moving towards as educators. Mr.Khan contact me when you wish to add bilingual learning to your academy. We will be talking for days....be prepared.

this is the future of education

Really awesome gyu. I just love Khan academy and it's content . Everything that he said was directly applicable to me. I took maths as my subject in class 11 12 (India) . But even after I completed my 11 I felt like I was not good enough. Then I started using Khan academy and filled my previous gaps of basic algebra , trigonometry etc. And after that things started getting interesting and easy. Not only that it even helped me with other new topics. It was not as if my teachers weren't good or I didn't like the subject but all those gaps in my previous classes held me back. So thank you for helping me Khan academy.

Statistically home schooled children do better on standardized tests. You are right that if the parents are not intelligent enough to teach, then they should not. As to integration into a social scene, that is where sports teams, clubs, volunteer initiatives etc come into play. My daughter takes piano, soccer and is bilingual; I have a good education and if I had the means to, I could home school her to an ivy league education. Its more the unavailability of the parents that dont make it viable.

I was someone who dodged out of math study because I was labeled as learning disabled (Aspergers in reality). I ended up using Khan Academy to get through my math upgrade when I went back to high school. I can say enough good things about Mr. Khan!

Khan Academy allowed me to get caught up on two weeks of Calculus that I missed due to suicidal depression. Yay Kahn!

my thoughts exactly. this is a perfect example of how the education system SHOULD be.

This is the man responsible for the 'Indian guy on youtube' stereotype.

And I'm still going to like it again.

This is exactly how I learn, it applies directly to me.

I can't agree that homeschooling is the best, many adults don't have a working knowledge of many of the advanced topics taught in highschool (or its equivalent). Not only will the education fall short, but the socialization aspect of school is quite important. I'm not saying that the school system is efficient- far from it. I haven't met a socially well-adjusted homeschooled person, though, and I've been friends with more than a couple. And it makes their life in college quite overwhelming imo

Very intelligent man.

You have given me real hope!!

Bravo man! Big work Mr. Kahn. Great use of the internet for humanism. I didn't quite map the humanism thing until this lecture. Well done - Sir!

I got into medical school because of that guy

I have tremendous #respect for Mr., Khan

Truly refreshing.

I LOVE Khan Academy. It's helped me so much!

I think he was a bit dazzled by the response of the audience and by the fact that he went from 'making videos for his cousins' to 'impressing Bill fucking Gates'. I just love how normal Sal Khan really is.

Amazing! such a great video. thanks a lot for your great work.

If he doesn't blow your mind, you have no emotion!

Great mind

Future of education is right ,I have a feeling school base isn't going to based on understanding a subject ,it's going to be based on ow fast you can learn it.

Found this reading a piece about Bill Gates' fav Ted Talks! I've always wanted to do sth like this! Thanks, Salman, an great job with the Khan Academy!

One word RESPECT!

Also, this is all well and good for the average student, but what about the places where the education gap is the worst and kids don't have internet access at home? What are we doing to make sure every kid in this country has consistent internet access?

You r a great guy .

Thank you so much! This means a lot to me! :)

It's a Shame that he has to share name with A Trerrible Actor

Уникална идея! A unique idea!

Everybody Loves Khan

great people.

Awesome!

future of education!!!

I came for Sal, then I came for Sal. ( ͡◉ ͜ʖ ͡◉)

thanks for the organic chemistry videos khan!

Khan is the man

Exactly what I'm doing. Have gotten sooo tired of doing the lecture thing... now spend classtime doing relevant stuff. But we use Blackboard and it sucks.

Salman you are a star

...And he did

now everybody, teacher / students, do video learning

I really think in 5-10 years time this will be recognised as an official academic institute that certifies people. And the world will see how much traditional Universities were working more on the lines of knowledge prevention than actual education.

This is the future!

Finally someone did it!

my current opinion is indifferent, though i want to see schools incorperate things that they can do now that they couldn't do 5 years ago into their learning. i mean almost every student has a smart phone, but instead of utilizing that device you ban them from being used during school hours? that doesn't seem correct. It made sense back when phones were only used for calls and texts but now they are powerful devices that can be used for education.

khan? from khanacademy? awesome!

tks

this guy deservs more credit

Because I haven't seen it.

I do not study at school I do it at home🎉

5:58 i think right now we all are homeschoolers and need motivation

epic khan

Amazing I like the videos

Amazing guy :)

It bothers me that the very intelligent among our younger generations go to be hedge fund managers. I wish more would go into education, engineering, and science where they could be of great help.

KHAAAAN !!!

How*

I learned Assembly programing language from RU-vid. :)

Could you please make p4 mathematics videos please

who are the 9 no-emotion-having people who disliked this video

...Not everyone has Smart Phones, not everyone can be trusted to use them responsibly. Education still needs a lot of work in the West, to avoid growing into a disgusting, pressured, test-ridden experience that occurs in the East, or into something anarchistic and trivial. However, I don't believe phones should be fundamental in learning. I would agree with computers, but phones are too hard to monitor and cross certain personal boundaries for students.

i dont understand why they have to replicate everything!

the real king khan

Will videos evententually be translated?

if by Philanthropy you mean Eugenics

reupload?

Sal's the nuts!

All my thumb-ups are belong to you
