Шаблон:Infobox non-profit

Khan Academy is a non-profit[1] educational organization created in 2006 by educator Salman "Sal" Khan with the aim of providing a "free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere".[2] The organization produces short lectures in the form of YouTube videos.[3] In addition to micro lectures, the organization's website features practice exercises and tools for educators. All resources are available for free to anyone around the world. The main language of the website is English, but the content is also available in other languages.

Методика

Khan Academy has been criticized because Salman Khan does not have a background in pedagogy.[4][5] Statements made in some videos have also been questioned.[6] In response to these criticisms, the organization has fixed errors in its videos, expanded its faculty and built a network of content specialists.[6] Others have presented data showing Khan videos are less effective than those of other publishers and that the concept of chalk on a blackboard is less engaging for students than other styles of video, such as cartoons.[7]

In a January 2016 interview, Khan defended the value of Khan Academy online lectures while acknowledging their limitations: "I think they're valuable, but I'd never say they somehow constitute a complete education."[8]

In 2010, Khan Academy introduced badges as part of a program to promote gamification of learning.[9][10] There are currently 6 main levels of badges, with hundreds of different badges in total.[11]

The major components of Khan Academy include:[12][13]

  • a personalized learning engine to help people track what they have learned and recommend what they can do next
  • a video library with over 9,000 videos in various topic areas.[12][14] These videos are licensed under a Creative Commons (BY-NC-SA) 3.0 license.[15]
  • automated exercises with continuous assessment. The exercise software is available as open source under the MIT License.[16]
