open (and powerful) education


Learning is what we do, what motivates us, what makes us capable of the astounding things we do. But there is so much to learn, and a lot is so boringly provided, or it is just too costly for most people to afford.
But some people have been excellent at creating learning which is free, and exciting.

Animated stories, powerful visualisations:
The Khan Academy
RSA Animate
Gapminder
Big History Project
Crash Courses

Some cool infographics:
