What are your thoughts about Khan Academy?

I would use Khan Academy in three ways to enhance my classroom: 1. Independent work time 2. Flipped classroom 3. Bellwork/re-teaching

During independent work time or rotations, a link to Khan Academy can be provided as a resource for students. Students can watch the entire problem or find the part of the problem solving process they need help with to complete the work.  Also, student's who are absent can access Khan Academy for make-up work.

In a flipped classroom, students can watch the Khan Academy video the evening before the actual lesson is taught in class.  The next day, I would cover the material in class.  This will give students two presentations of the math lesson prior to independent/small group work time. 

During bellwork time, students can review the previous math lesson by watching a Khan Academy video.  Also, a student can watch the video as bellwork prior to the lesson starting.
