The Khan Academy

Another enterprise with youtube video clips for educational purposes is the amazing effort by Salman Khan whose website the Khan Academy http://www.khanacademy.org/ provides over 1,600 10 minute online lessons from most basic to most advanced mathematics, as well as science tutorials and financial information...

I heard about it when Kim Hill interviewed him sat-20100911-0835-Sal_Khan_YouTube_tutor-048.mp3
Sal Khan is the founder of the Khan Academy, whose homemade tutorials on YouTube are the most popular educational resource on the web. He is currently the portfolio manager of a fund based in California, and has an MBA from Harvard Business School, a Masters in electrical engineering and computer science, a BS in electrical engineering and computer science, and a BS in mathematics from MIT.
