Free tutoring

Following my post about disintermediating education, I was interested to see that the Khan Academy has posted over 800 videos on Youtube teaching algebra, economics etc etc. When course content is as free as this, it creates exciting challenges for educational institutions to create value for students elsewhere.

Hat tip: Dan Colman on the excellent Open Culture blog.

Khan is brilliant Johnnie - been looking at his series on the Mortgage Crisis - he is an outstanding teacher - I know a lot but he has laser clarity

The future of ed is right here
