John Resig – Redefining the Introduction to Computer Science.
I don’t even know where to begin. John Resig has been a hero of mine for as long as I can remember and he just pole vaulted himself to an entirely new level in my book. John has been hinting towards the work he’s been doing at Khan Academy for a while now, but to see it live is simply stunning. Not only am I blown away by the content available, the tools John implemented are just thrilling. See for yourself:
Education is such an awesome space. I can’t help but to think I’ll grow into the field in some sort of capacity later in life because I really do love sharing knowledge and seeing people grasp a new subject matter. I really think this new content on Khan is a terrific service to our industry and will teach many people that computer science can be learned just like any other subject in school.
