With all the problems we hear everyday about how schools are wasting our money, bloated teacher salaries, ineffective teachers, high drop-out rate, and the indoctrination of our children its no surprise that parents today are looking for alternative venues to educate their kids.
Now traditionally parents withdrew their children from public school and homeschooled them. But new online alternatives are cropping up like K12 Online Academy and this:
Bill Gates Enrolls His Kids In Khan Academy. Khan Academy is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) that is attempting to be "free classroom for the World," with over 1,700 mini-lectures - pretty much just a YouTube channel.
Is the internet going to do to education what the internet did to the way we get our news?
