December 8, 2011 nouyang

http://techtv.mit.edu/videos/15484-rethinking-education—sal-khan-3-mit-degrees-85487485-lessons-delivered
’twas recorded! awesome talk, entertaining in its own right (Khan of KhanAcademy.org came to give a talk at MIT) and he brings up some very interesting ideas about education and how to change it for the better. Highly recommended talk.
