Comment on Khan Academy and the Effectiveness of Science Videosparent

The biggest problem is that the lectures are slooowww. It's almost impossible not to let your mind wander and start thinking about other stuff. The problem with going fast as a teacher is that not every student grasps things at the same speed, and different students grasp different things at different speeds. This is where videos shine; the teacher can go fast because the student can rewind if he missed something.
