Maybe an alternative to the Khan Academy

The ClassProf left a comment on our blog. I checked out his blog Classroom Professor.  It looks like he is putting together free math instructional videos.  I watched this one:



At about minute three is a fun device: a minature cannon which shot at a specific time to tell people in Paris to set their watches!

Henry, thanks for this post!
I'm not trying to compete with the Kahn Academy, but nevertheless I am very happy if teachers think my videos are worth showing to their students, so I appreciate the comment. I have more videos coming from our trip in Europe; hope you like them also.
