Recently I became frustrated with how poor my #math skills were and decided to do something about it. I found #KhanAcademy and have been going through thier Algebra courses
It's a fantastic resource and I recommend it to anyone wanting to start or continue thier education on a wide range of science and humanities subjects.

Just to add to that, between #onelaptopperchild and #ai , plus my favorite, #khanacademy , and #StackOverflow , those constitute a sort of library. Certainly could rival many public schools.
Let's not get caught up in the bricks and mortar.
Myself, I'm a #kindle fanatic and find #eink to be a technology with transformative potential.
More #reading I say. Personally, I cannot stand reading on a regular screen.
While doing a calculus exercise in Khan Academy I learned about Geogebra, and wanted to use it to make this chart.
To figure out how I took screenshots of iterative attempts and showed them to ChatGPT (by pasting screen captures into its input box).
It was able to mostly (though not perfectly) see what I was trying to do and guide me to the necessary Geogebra tools and techniques.
Astonishing.

@ai6yr Yuck. In the span of weeks this has become all I hear about, "AI this, AI that," from #KhanAcademy and #Duolingo, too. I hope I still respect those two institutions after their foray with #AI. We shall see.
