Grant To Allow Khan Academy To Expand, Build a Physical School 92

mayberry42 writes with this news snipped from Hack Education: "Khan Academy announced this morning that it has raised $5 million from the O'Sullivan Foundation (a foundation created by Irish engineer and investor Sean O'Sullivan). The money is earmarked for several initiatives: expanding the Khan Academy faculty, creating a content management system so that others can use the program's learning analytics system, and building an actual brick-and-mortar school, beginning with a summer camp program."

As a programmer, any time I hear hype like this ". . .could spell the end for accidental key presses." I laugh a little.

We will NEVER spell the end for accidental use of technology by using more technology.

It kind of falls into the old maxim "Try to make anything idiot proof, and the world with generate bigger idiots".
