‘Mystery Teacher Theater 2000′ contest calls for critiques of Khan Academy videos
As we mentioned in an earlier post this week, Khan Academy, while often seen as a pioneer in providing high quality online courses, is also often at the bad end of criticism.
Now, “Mystery Teacher Theater 2000,” a contest sponsored by Justin Reich, a doctoral researcher at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and Dan Meyer, a teacher and current Stanford math Ph.D. student, wants to “bring a critical eye to the Khan series by awarding a cash prize to the best video commentary on a Khan Academy video.”
