Salman Khan: Let's use video to reinvent education
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. This talk was presented at an official TED conference, and was featured by our editors on the home page.

Excellent presentation! Videos are very useful to complement learning. I also assign students to watch videos I have previously watched to help them understand better a topic or to introduce them to new content. by quijote17 Nov 12
