Khan Academy is widely used by mathematics teachers and students nowadays. It addresses the Common Core math standards, engages student learning with various online activities (videos, practices, and quizzes), and supplements daily instruction in a Flipped classroom environment. As a facilitator, the teacher can assign new learning topic videos and online practices the day before the physical instruction. The feature of “report” of online practice allows the teacher to monitor the students’ progress from a distance. For example, the number of attempts a student uses to get a specific problem solved helps the teacher to decide if an adjustment of the lesson is needed. The “providing instant feedback” feature of online quizzes and practice quizzes also motivates the students because if they want to improve their scores, they have the opportunity to redo the assessment with a different set of problems.
