Video transcript
- [Instructor] This video will
review the available content on Khan Academy and discuss
how our courses are designed to help students master the
content they're learning. When learners interact with Khan Academy, they will experience videos,
articles, practice questions and instant feedback to help them improve. When we think about the
resources Khan Academy contains, think of them split into two categories. The videos and articles
are instructional content and the practice questions
are practice content. Together, our goal is to provide learners a
growth mindset experience and authentically learn until they have mastered the content. A key part of that practice is
they'll get instant feedback about how they're doing
alongside worked solutions to help them get back on track if they're not quite clear
on a particular concept. We know many educators are familiar with Khan Academy's great math content, but many are unaware Khan
Academy has a lot more to offer. Take a moment to explore the dozens of courses available to
you, including courses in the sciences, finance and
economics, art and humanities. Additionally, we have test prep content including our digital SAT course created in partnership with the College Board. Another example that we're excited about here at Khan
Academy is we're excited to introduce our
financial literacy course. The financial literacy
course helps students and their families
understand money better, making it easier to reach goals and avoid financial problems. To check out and browse all the courses
that we have available, simply click on the Courses button in the upper left hand corner
of your Khan Academy account. As teachers, we know you have
many options when it comes to using tools in your classroom. So you might be asking yourself, what makes Khan Academy's
content so unique? Well, Khan Academy's content
is not only interactive, but our content is standards based, ensuring that it aligns with
educational requirements and allows teachers to
seamlessly integrate it into their curriculum. We've minimized the amount
of work teachers need to do by offering a wide range
of resources, exercises and videos that can be easily incorporated into your lesson plans
and daily instruction. This means you as the teacher
can spend more time focusing on your students' needs and
guiding them towards success. Our content is student friendly and encourages growth mindset by letting students know
that they can learn anything. We want students to feel like they are receiving
personalized support. We hope this video provides a look into the content
available on Khan Academy, but we know the best way to learn is to actually experience it. Choose a topic that
inspires you and explore it. (upbeat music)
