Comment on Khan of Khan Academy at TED (video)parent

Comments

My little rant is definitely meant to be more persuasive than quantifiably accurate; take it with a grain of salt.

Regardless, I don't think the existence of can't-be-motivated learners compromises the ideals of a Khan-like system. Sure there are kids that aren't going to get it no matter what, but their productivity in any system is going to be nill, Khan, tradtional, or otherwise.
