Show Notes
Only on the "CBS This Morning" podcast, Khan Academy founder Sal Khan joins co-host Tony Dokoupil to discuss his organization's mission of providing a free, world-class education to anyone, anywhere through the use of videos and software. Khan acknowledges the benefits of America offering free, mass public education but also points to some of the downfalls of the American educational system. He explains why it's important for students to learn at their own pace with a goal of mastering the content, rather than needing to move on to the next lesson while still having gaps in understanding.
