The Kahn Academy

For anyone who has a student in school or knows a student in school, I've discovered an AWESOME, FREE resource that you might want to investigate: The Khan Academy.

I recently read about it in this WIRED article and was PUMPED by the potential this resource has in helping students (of all ages - including me) better learn math, science and other difficult subjects. My enthusiasm stems partly from the simplicity of the resource and partly from the truly selflessness this guy, Sal Khan, exhibits in helping kids (people) learn. I can't recommend the site enough. Read the article (because it's fantastic) and then visit the Khan Academy site for yourself to see it in action.
