A humble, semi-off-topic suggestion: develop the knowledge maps for all the (planned in the near future) courses first, then let anyone submit both video lectures and evaluation questions and answers.
- ern 16y agoI think the most compelling aspect of the Khan Academy is Sal Khan's ability to explain stuff. Diluting that with other instructors could weaken the main selling point of KA.
- ph0rque 16y agoThat's a valid point... my suggestion would be a longer-term suggestion, when KA is popular enough to attract star educators in fields Khan hasn't touched yet.
- chrishaum 16y agoI absolutely agree with this suggestion. Another variation: bring excellent teachers in other (non-Khan) subjects together to devise learning maps, and then have the experts compete against each other to produce the lectures most favored by Khan Academy users. Seems like this would result in much faster growth in the breadth of KA's videos.
