Objectives
Flagship
By bringing Khan Academy into the classroom, teachers increase learning outcomes for their students. We provide reports on student progress so teachers can identify misunderstandings and gaps, and provide personalized instruction focused on areas where students are struggling. This enables teachers to have more time to do what they do best — connecting with and inspiring their students.
Last year, over 200 thousand teachers around the world used Khan Academy. In addition to providing tools and educational content, we support teachers with training resources (http://www.khanacademy.org/resources/teacher-essentials), webinars (http://khan.co/KA-TeachersYouTube), and a community of educators (http://www.facebook.com/groups/teachwithkhan) to allow them to share best practices with each other and our team. By aligning to national curricula, we make it easy for teachers to find the content they need.
With Khan Academy, educators can more easily facilitate rich, interactive learning experiences for their students to do what every teacher wants — help all of their students succeed.
