Salman Khan Talk at the MIT Club of Northern California

[@Mivan-cq8jr]

I have never watched a 1 hour+ talk so engaged and had fun 🙏💜💜

[@justicekev]

I have been forwarding links to his site to my friends on facebook, and asking them to pass along to any students in their lives. Great thing to do. Spread the ability to learn, change the world!

[@bdub24j]

Thanks KZbin for giving this video more than the usual time allocation of 10min because Salman deserves as much for all the selfless time and effort he gives. As the presenter mentioned..."world class educator." That title fits him well. My thanks to Salman Khan and his videos.

[@fabiogn1]

You are helping too many people here in Brazil, Sal! I would like to thank you on behalf of all these people!

[@mtech84]

hey sal you have done a great work.. this justifies... increasing the confidence levels for every individual for any age group.

[@Elusefelier]

Great talk, Sal. The future is changing, and it is becoming increasingly clear that our progress is exponential. Education is yet another paradigm which is bound to undergo a stunning metamorphosis. We've made more technological and scientific progress in the last ten years than in the history of mankind. Here's to an ever-accelerating future.

[@machadojr]

Hey Salman! You are famous even in Brazil!!! I just heard about you on the radio!!! Congrats!! Wish I could have a teacher like you when I was kid! Take care!!!

[@dual85]

Thanks Salman Khan for everything you have done and everything you continue to do. I would second the call for CS videos! Again thanks! : )

[@DarinLawsonHosking]

This by far the most fantastic paradigm shift in education that I have seen. By commoditizing basic core education and adding in the ability to create a self contained mobile platform then all people on the planet will benefit. Putting both khanacadamy and Wikipedia both in one single "box" and sending that box around the world, this will remove many hurdles in education which is one of the primary causes of inequality around the world.

[@Texus8]

Thank you very much for filming and posting this! I'm a University student and loyal Khan Academy user and I really believe strongly in what they are doing. It's always great to hear Sal's thoughts on the matter so thanks again for sharing this! :D

[@halflifeproductionz]

Sal is such a great communicator. good man, a great inspiration for all!!

[@1123aka]

i have EXACTLY the same perspective Sal , n im so happy i've actually found someone who thinks JUST the same way ! i really wish i could work with you !!

[@optimusimperat]

you are brilliant! i'm a graduate but everything i learned in university had always been hazy, i just managed to do the minimum to get to the next level. but that is not what learning is all about. before, it was a chore to study and learn especially when you can't grasp the concept for whatever reason or circumstance. but now, it is thrilling to go back and learn differential equations and laplace transforms and higher mathematics. YOU'RE THE NEW EUCLID BETTER BY SEVERAL ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE!

[@refink33]

great video Sal. you spoke about Military Veterans going back to school after their service and I fit that bill. I have forgotten some concepts but your videos have helped me tremendously. Combined with your explanation and hard work; I have passed College-Algebra, Trig and Calculus I. thank you Sir

[@benjammin2ya]

Thank you so much for filming this lecture!!! It is very personable and informative. Khan academy pwns my college...

[@silverfoxidm]

The real time monitoring on learning is fabulous, here, that Sal illustrates. It used to be said after your schooling is over ur education begins; yet, here is real education even after the yrs. of schooling are over - schooling that was definitely OLD school and outdated vs this so much more precise & concise!

[@30LayersOfKevlar]

Go Go Super Salman

[@toowaker37]

Khan is doing what needs to be done and our country needs to get behind him and allow others to work for him. This type of work is what leads to future scientist or just people with a great appreciation for learning, because it breaks down the biggest barrier.....money or the lack of it from many people that are busted broke in this ecomony.

[@AndreaLouisMoreau]

I just did the first four or five exercise modules, mostly to get a feel for it. It was basic arithmetic, but I was surprised by how the "game" aspect (getting badges, earning points and such), made it so fun. I actually got excited. I can't wait to learn something from Sal that I don't know yet.

[@drfoxcourt]

This is a lecture/talk that should be repeated in every math teacher training program in the USA. If American education is to compete in the world-wide market, this is a vital step in what school work, lessons and assessments must become.

[@JusticeRetroHunter]

Your videos are great i plan to watch all 1400 of them ^.^

[@SuperCuriouss]

I love your vision man. And yes, educators can adapt, to feel less threatened. I agree that social problem solving is better. I also agree that this might leave more extra time for creative courses etc. Interpretation of the data/feedback system is all content-based. So I find the question about 10% with learning difficulty or styles very interesting. e.g. the girl who got stuck, raced ahead, got stuck, raced again: maybe she saw she needs to slow down &goof off, or get thru content too quickly.

[@spamdude1]

Best video I've seen in a while. I would say "Khan for President" but that would mean he'd just be wasting time in politics.

[@adam.phelps]

Great points made in this video: -Concepts shouldn't be tied with age -We shouldn't settle for Cs or Bs but As -The typical classroom setting is ineffiecent today -Textbooks are written in a difficult way -Educational tools should be implemented on the classroom, such as: random problem generators and software to track student progress -Educational material should be available on any device, anywhere I can't wait to watch Sal on TED! ( P.S. Watched this entire video, worth it!)

[@ull893]

This conversation was so interesting, i sat through it completely, although I wanted to leave, due to bedtime..!!

[@zachb12]

great look into ur world of thoughts and upbringing of your channel!!!!!

[@nriab23]

Thank you sal for everything, :)

[@greetingsfromkohat]

I have always been wanting to be good at numbers but couldnt get through it.. now after getting into khans academy I believe it is going to work now.

[@JupiterRonin]

You are my hero!!!

[@spudcole319]

GO SAL!

[@Marinecorps1812]

Damn it, Khan. You're what I want to be when I grow up.

[@Jatin19902]

he is truly hero............

[@orilovesyou]

your amazing salman!

[@apricotsnms516]

very good lecture thanks for the upload too! also Sal you might want to consider WordPress for your site it may make it easier to navigate and to update etc. anyway thanks again!

[@FastKid26]

GO KHAN ACADEMY!!! FINALS WEEK IS COMING!!

[@ZnBangash]

It's 4 in the morning and I am still watching this lol.

[@waltersumofan]

Whole thing is great. Skip to the 24th minute for a very important epiphany about streaming and how it's a lie, and at least up to the 30th minute for another gem.

[@GoodTunesFtw]

Yeah, programming classes on Khan academy would be great. Also more calculus in the III to IV level.

[@vapssu]

i wish everyone was like sal ;)

[@ssips720]

just the fact that he reached out to his cousin like that..

[@kantesh]

I wish we got our education this way when we were kids!

[@dannyboy12357]

i love you sal

[@evolutionofremix]

I feel great watching this whole video from 2:30 - 4:00 am =]

[@rootedwithsami]

@GoodTunesFtw I completely agree Khan. I really want to learn how to program and I think it would be a great addition if you can post videos. Thanks ~Long time Khanacademy watcher sam

[@treyatl2006]

Khan is great... Can you make videos on Discrete Mathematics??? Anyway I love watching your videos!

[@frozenstrawbs]

@khanacademy you are my hero

[@akbarthegreat03]

dammn Sal, graduated from MIT and Harvard Business School?

[@TATGemini]

Holy crap..... what an elite idea. Assigning reading the lectures, then doing the homework in class. What a twist!

[@TeganES]

great job sal!

[@tanveerk]

He's not a genius. He's just a person who has put effort into learning things the right way. Anyone can do it if they put required efforts. Let's learn from this guy instead of making his achievements look like something out of the world.

[@Kram1032]

I wonder, what happened to that history app, Sal mentions? It sounds awesome but I wasn't able to find it on khanacademy - two years later, I'd think that this app is already usable... I did find smarthistory but that seems to restrict the idea to art history and I wasn't able to see a resemblance with what Sal said it would look like...

[@boeing747200lr]

18:55 is hilarious. Thank you Sal. U shuld b the next American President.

[@unitix]

@khanacademy quit your modesty Sal, you are starting a revolution, and I am excited to see where it goes in the upcoming years, especially as a very bored undergrad pre dent student...

[@jollygrl11]

your are the only adult who actually gets this unfair school system! my parents should hear this :)

[@JEESherazi]

I LIKE!

[@norwayte]

Miseducation: Broadcasting lessons and moving forward without having really an intuition and understanding - two wise take-aways. In europe/germany they are some attempts to get away from broadcasting lessons/ex-cathedra teaching. But that takes time. Nethertheless - everything stands and falls with the teacher - no matter the circumstances. You are gifted. Keep on moving. Change the world. Save lifes. Vector calculus for everyone. :-)

[@talal143]

i dont know you but damn i have much respect for you!

[@shreerangaraju1013]

32:40 Andrew Ng! Now I know where he got the inspiration for coursera.

[@Kram1032]

Haha "When will you speak at TED" - nice that this happened by now :)

[@98kof98um2]

two thumbs up

[@marcelfurmie]

@alecclews Have you tried wine and Smoothdraw?

[@aznwilly211]

one day I see Sal in Washington, revamping our education system

[@tbird792]

What a hunk! Educated & Funny

[@SolidGaby]

hey! it's the guy!!

[@Alexmula]

sal you should do CS videos!

[@starfish53]

Movie Title Suggestion: Upload and Deliver

[@mauroprovatos]

where is that graph shown at 08:43? Can i find it on the website?

[@xtensitymusic]

This dude should get a peace prize or something similar.....

[@narutofan1108]

The problem you are discussing during the 12 - 13 minute point is simple, it's how bureaucracies work. It was designed that way from the start.

[@moncao246642]

O método é mais antigo que andar para a frente. O expositor fica muito na frente da tela.

[@progrockcoffee]

Who do you think is going to build and maintain those robots?

[@sasamuraki]

so hilarious n informative at the same time - sal could have been a stand up... 1.23hrs just flew...

[@ananiasacts]

@eigovideos, I think YT comments themselves are a good way to practice essay writing skills. You just have to do it one paragraph at a time.

[@Ahfjo]

Jeez, he knows how to setup credibility with his audience. How many lecturers do you see (for a small group and without a headset) simply move and talk without standing behind a stupid podium.

[@khanacademy]

@plllll0 No you don't. Then people would tire of my jokes and there'd be a shortage of Lactaid and dark chocolate.

[@masterjackie1]

did i really make it through this whole 1 hour 23 minutes 18 seconds? I've never been able to do that

[@aznwilly211]

DID YOU MAKE KZbin PARTNER YET? SORRY FOR CAPS TRYING TO GET YOUR ATTENTION. YOU POST REGULARLY AND YOU GET MANY VIEWERS

[@mitzzkai]

anybody else has funny colours trailing when viewing the video? neon green and pink and so forth?

[@kantesh]

I wish Sal was my teacher in school, so much more interesting than our boring professors and teachers (yawn)!

[@crocz]

At my school we spend at least about 30mins of the class to go through the homework

[@Ramiromasters]

@vjpillay You must have an interesting point of view about a well and round educated student...

[@tanveerk]

Thank you so much for misunderstanding my comment. Do you really think I was disrespecting someone? What I meant to say was that people who look genius and super smart from a distance are actually hard working and focused. Nobody is a "dump" student. they just need proper guidance and some hard work on their side.

[@ConsciousTruth68]

When is this guy gonna get his Nobel Peace Prize

[@dwichiesa]

He should have come to NTU ~_~

[@TheDeathofGrace]

ha cute ending considering i watched the ted video first.

[@vapssu]

@khanacademy OMG sal replied to my comment =D

[@crumcon]

@DeltaA118 they were at KFC at that moment, watching khan's video of course

[@timzibrat]

@eigovideos Doesn't creative thinking come from already gained knowledge? So if you learn so much more with free online education it might give you more possibilities to think creatively.. But I nevertheless think you're right.. High quality feedback might be the limitation... I'm sure that Sal already has an idea for that though ;)

[@TheMrSpam]

hes asian... WHAT A SURPRISE!

[@andreirocks1992]

@kozychik most people felt like that in school, including me :)

[@noothankyou7489]

meanwhile India still has the PLAGUE. Good work india or pakistan.

[@Tesla_Death_Ray]

in what?

[@JayLato]

Nobel Prize

[@AuntieCheri]

Good joke at 1:20:00. Check it out.

[@noothankyou7489]

ya people "love" to help each other. that is why that guy is got an MBA. to "help" ridiculous.

[@dravidr007]

@doctorcheriwatts lol agreed....or gradutes who or job less!

[@vjpillay]

Jack of all trades and master of none?

[@craigbarnes85]

@vjpillay He has 2 master's degrees. Next!

[@AliShaikh1]

*funny way to express amount of dislikes*

[@JayDee98765]

@ChanceMyHeart Check out Carl Sagan if you like Sal:)
