Sal Khan Announced as a Featured Keynote Speaker at Elliott Masie’s Learning 2015
Saratoga Springs, NY (PRWEB) March 19, 2015 -- Elliott Masie announces that Sal Khan will be a Featured Keynote Speaker at Learning 2015, taking place November 1-4 in Orlando, Florida.
Sal Khan has been one of the most recognizable Learning Change Agents in the world. He is the founder of the Khan Academy, a nonprofit with the mission of providing free, high-quality education to "anyone, anywhere" in the world. The work and learning models of Khan Academy combine targeted design, responsive learning, Big Learning Data and highly focused content segments - which are right on focus for the Workplace Learning goals of Learning 2015 participants. A former hedge fund analyst with degrees from MIT and Harvard, Khan is also the author of The One World School House, which explores the potential impact of the web as a teaching tool. It may be one of the most influential books about education in our time.
Elliott will interview Sal on stage at Learning 2015 in Orlando this November. Together, they will take a deep dive to look at these key learning issues:
• Learning Personalization
• Learning Duration
• Role of Video Segments
• Big Learning Data
• Repetition in Learning
• Responsive Learning Systems
• Changing Learner Expectations
“I had the opportunity to meet and interview Sal Khan and his mother at a FIRST Robotics Championship several years ago. His passion for assisting students to master educational content led him to a larger mission of reshaping how technology could provide a design and personalization wrapper for content - at all ages. I am delighted and thrilled that Sal Khan will be our Monday morning Featured Keynote Speaker at Learning 2015.”
