The idea itself is extremely inspiring! The existence of one single domain acting as an enormous den of learning material is highly accredit itself. The basic thought of learning just about anything and everything just on the touch of a fingertip is wondrous. The Khan Academy is a well acclaimed web portal which has evolved a new way of learning. The site, accompanied with a YouTube channel, features thousands of videos on a large variety of topics.

If you did not understand what you algebra teacher’s last lecture was then all you need to do is to go to the Khan academy’s web portal and begin typing algebra in the search box located at the top right corner of the website. As you begin typing the search keyword the search box gives you the possible options from among the available lesson options.

Salman Khan, a Bangladeshi-American is enthusiastic about his non profit venture and his website quotes him as saying

““I teach the way that I wish I was taught. The lectures are coming from me, an actual human being who is fascinated by the world around him.”

Khan thinks that the very idea of not showing the speaker or the teacher in the videos is in order to enhance the one to one communication with the learner and his lesson. So far this has been pretty effective indeed.

The App

The Academy has done iPad users a favor by introducing a Khan Academy app for them. The app features access to all the educational videos on the website. It provides users with the facility to store the videos offline. The lessons can be viewed in the app in a very presentable manner. The lessons’ organized list can be viewed at the sidebar while the video gets played on the right. The facility to share the videos via social media is also available in the app.

 The website and its aura are fascinations indeed. They are great works for all those who have always needed a change from the normal routine mode of learning this is just the right place to go to!
