Geek Posted March 12, 2012 Posted March 12, 2012 <div class="KonaBody"><p><img src="http://osxdaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/khan-academy-ipad.jpg" alt="Khan Academy" title="khan-academy-ipad" width="620" height="465" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-28317" /></p> <p>If you like free online learning tools, you’ll enjoy Khan Academy’s new iPad app. Khan Academy is a popular educational service that aims to offer a free world-class education to anyone by way of over 3,000 video courses. These videos and lectures cover everything from biology, chemistry, physics, humanities, world history, finance, programming, computer science fundamentals, K-12 mathematics, and much more.</p> <p>All Khan Academy videos are hosted on YouTube, so why have a dedicated app? The apps primary benefit is each video becomes downloadable, allowing for offline viewing. Considering how easy it is for online distractions to interfere with learning, that’s a significant plus. Other perks to using the app are subtitles, a progress log, and soon the app will include exercises too. Other than the ugly pea-green interface elements (please, just make them gray), the app is quite nice and well worth the free download.</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/khan-academy-watch.-practice./id469863705?mt=8">Download Khan Academy free from the App Store</a></li> </ul> <p>Khan Academy app is currently for iPad only, but if you like free <a href="http://osxdaily.com/tag/education/">education</a>, don’t miss the official <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/itunes-u/id490217893?mt=8">iTunes U app</a> either, it works with iPad and iPhone and offers tons of coursework as well.</p> </div> <p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/L-uTQE1nup9iQ5b0DJSJ2lXTn2Q/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/L-uTQE1nup9iQ5b0DJSJ2lXTn2Q/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/L-uTQE1nup9iQ5b0DJSJ2lXTn2Q/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/L-uTQE1nup9iQ5b0DJSJ2lXTn2Q/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:D7DqB2pKExk"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?i=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:D7DqB2pKExk" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?a=x4NWs6RlyE0:6oFcpLGEMaU:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/osxdaily?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/osxdaily/~4/x4NWs6RlyE0" height="1" width="1"/> View the full article
