    Great maths instruction free at Khan Academy on You Tube

    Salman Khan: The Messiah of Math - BusinessWeek

    Quote:
    "His free website,dubbed Khan Academy,may well be the most popular educational site in the world.Last month,about 2 million students visited."

    Maths instruction in some American classrooms is based largely on Khan Academy which students access on laptops in classrooms. Results with Khan are better than with commercial maths softwares of education publishers in which the clarity of instruction is compromised by burdensome state bureaucratic guidelines eg California's.

    It's an excellent website for those at second and third level taking any course with Mathematics involved.
