Exactly. We're in agreement on that point that teachers aren't going to be replaced by computers.

Khan is much more than that Joe. It provides kids with in-class online instruction in class and provides teachers real time monitoring of how the students are progressing through the lessons. The kids struggling with the lessons can then get further instruction on the spot from the teacher to get them back up to speed. It improves efficiency for both the teachers and the students. Unlike Bill Bennett, Khan's goal is neither to make money nor to put teachers out of work.<br><br><div><div id="ecxSkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="ecxstopSpelling">Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2012 08:46:01 -0700<br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Superintendent says 'doomsday' not coming<br>From: <a href="mailto:philosopher.joe@gmail.com">philosopher.joe@gmail.com</a><br>To: <a href="mailto:v2020@ssl1.fastmail.fm">v2020@ssl1.fastmail.fm</a><br>CC: <a href="mailto:scooterd408@hotmail.com">scooterd408@hotmail.com</a>; <a href="mailto:thansen@moscow.com">thansen@moscow.com</a>; <a href="mailto:vision2020@moscow.com">vision2020@moscow.com</a>; <a href="mailto:cpenni@gmail.com">cpenni@gmail.com</a><br><br>I was being ironic. I don't think Khan is going to save the day. The Khan Academy -- which is great -- works for (a) self motivators like Saundra or (b) students who have parents that are engaged in their educational experiences. The percentage of people that can learn math on their own is relatively low. Most people can't even learn it with a teacher, a tutor, or whatever. Online learning will not solve our math education problems any more than the availability of online financial advice will solve the problem of growing personal debt. Joe<br>
