Community reviews for Khan Academy

I used this as a child and loved it! There may not be any games, but SO much better than IXL (With lots of 1-star reviews). There are now currently class minigames and my class loves them!

This is a great resource because it makes learning into a sort of game. Instead of getting a grade, children either master a skill or they don't, and will proceed to practice the skill until they do master it.

This website proves immensely useful for educators across various disciplines. Khan Academy offers a broad range of topics, along with preparation courses for standardized tests such as the ACT, SAT, and MCAT. It explains why an answer is incorrect when a student gets a question wrong and clarifies why other choices are incorrect as well. Additionally, it generates quizzes at the end of each chapter, enabling students to evaluate their grasp of the material. This resource is exceptionally helpful for preparing for exams at any academic level, suitable for students from elementary to undergraduate studies.

I enjoy using Khan Academy as a teaching tool. There are various applications and subjects that can be found. I like the way the site breaks down and explains topics to the students, and it can be used as a supplement to learning in the classroom. I like that there are practices quizzes and tests that students can take before exams. Khan Academy also provides reading materials. One critique would be that some topics can be overcomplicated in the videos explanation, but for the most part I have found the videos beneficial.

Khan Academy has been my go-to resource whenever I'm in doubt on any subject. All the topics are taught in a thorough manner in the videos, followed by great test/quiz questions to assess our retention. User interface for the website is great and its easily navigable for all ages. The visual appeal for the entire website is also very attractive for all ages. Definitely recommend this website for anyone to learn.

Khan Academy as a whole is an incredible resource for students who want to receive extra help outside of the classroom. Students are able to have detailed explanations for concepts that are very engaging! The creators of this tool value free quality education, and they provide just that. The videos have very easy to understand explanations and can be a tool to get ahead as a student or a major grounds for support. It is very barebones and teaches as if the students were in the classroom.

Overall, I really like Khan Academy as a teaching tool. The material is explained clearly and cleanly in the videos with Sal Khan's neat handwriting and drawings to further explain.

this resource is good at simplifying certain concepts and can prove to be beneficial to students outside of the classroom.

While I believe the lessons can be helpful, I've often found the lack of personalized instruction made it seem like I was just learning the same thing I was in class. I would often still feel stuck even with the option for reading text for extra help. However, I believe that if integrated well with a classroom, this means having assigned work or assigned extra help from a teacher on this resource, then it would make the best combination. Having a teacher as a guide that is working/integrating Khan Academy will help much more than just doing it on your own.

This is an excellent resource that can help students of all ages. There is a wide variety of topics and many practice problems. Students immediately know whether or not their answers are correct. If they get something incorrect, they have the option to get help, where hints or explanations are provided. Teachers can easily monitor student progress to determine which students need some extra help and what topics they are struggling with. Students are also free to roam the site and explore other topics in other subjects they may not be currently learning. This can help students explore their interests and expand their overall knowledge.
