TED Talks- Salman Khan: Let's Use Video to Reinvent Education

This presentation discusses a unique way the internet is being used to support mathematics education.  It allows students to work at their own pace and receive one-on-one support with their teachers.  This may be a unique way for African American Female mathematics students to develop confidence as they master concepts incrementally, making sure no major gaps are being passed over.

  1. I love Khan Academy! I gave this link to my soon to be 5th grade students to look at over during the summer. I tutor a student in math and together we have used this website to help her master concepts.

  2. What a wonderful resource. Providing students with the ability to engage in content at their own pace and level is so important in developing confidence and competence.

    I had never heard of this before, thank you so much for sharing!
