This assignment has two purposes -- to introduce you to Sal Khan and the Khan Academy, an important Internet education service, and to get you to think about good questions.
Read the associated topic module, then watch this TED Talk by Sal Khan of the Khan Academy.
After watching it, formulate a question that a teacher might ask a class about the talk. Try to come up with a question that would get the class thinking or stimulate discussion -- it should not be something trivial like a fact that could be looked up in the talk transcript or using a search engine. Make sure it is a question that you could answer intelligently.
When you have crafted a carefully worded question, print it out to turn in.
Also post it to our class community under the topic "questions for Sal Khan."
