Comment on Khan Academy and the Effectiveness of Science Videos

Comments

Illuminating. Seems that the academy's recent focus on mastery and testing is of utmost importance, at least that way students who watch the videos but do not absorb the material will realize they don't actually "get it" when they can't answer the questions. The key will be in devising problem sets that truly require mastery and not just plug and chug or rote memorization.
