“Future of Education “ are the first words which came to my mind after seeing video of Khan Academy at youtube. Mr Salman Khan, a graduate of MIT and Harvard Business School, spectacularly presented a futuristic idea of online education. Basically, idea is to prepare video lectures on various topics including display of dashboard and to post it online so that anybody can access those and learn from it. A substitute to classroom teaching.

Khan Academy is a modern educational organization which has a vision to make a single global online classroom where students from every corner of world will learn together. It amazes me that how a simple idea of giving video lecture to a cousin through youtube has become, idea of this decade. Mr Khan’s lectures for his cousin got great response which let him realise that video can be more helpful a student to learn.  Anybody can reachout to it ...you can replay the lecture again and again for deeper understanding ....and even for many homework has become more interactive.

A non-profit organization making its market share more and more with more and more viewers . Its YouTube channel has over 150 million total views, compared to MIT's 38 million. It also has twice as many subscribers, at more than 320,000.

Mr Khan made best use of technology and internet to brought up Khan Academy. Drawings are made with a Wacom tablet and the free natural drawing application SmoothDraw 3, and recorded with screen capture software from Camtasia Studio. Khan's audio narratives are recorded with a Samson C03U USB Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone with a miniature desk tripod.

What made Khan Academy a huge success is it core idea of understanding each and every individual and delivering accordingly. As its slogan goes "It is our mission to accelerate learning for students of all ages."
