About this project
Alain S. from KA Deutsch e.V. is responsible for this project
The Khan Academy (de.khanacademy.org) is one of the largest educational platforms with a mission:
First-class, free education for everyone, worldwide!
The content ranges from mathematics and programming to medicine and art history. There are 168 million registered users worldwide in over 50 languages. The "Mastery Learning" concept is unique: The message - You can learn anything - permeates the platform. Step by step, learners can acquire a true understanding. This demonstrably boosts motivation, and learners achieve about 20-30 percent higher learning progress in mathematics!

How can such a high-quality platform be free?
Khan Academy is a non-profit organization by conviction, which means it is funded exclusively by donations! Thanks to the culture of giving in the USA, Khan Academy has an annual budget of $100 million.

Who are we and why do we need your support?
KA Deutsch e.V. is an independent non-profit organization from Khan Academy. Our volunteers translate the content out of conviction. The translations are NOT funded by Khan Academy. Since our founding in 2014, we have translated thousands of math exercises, recorded over 1300 learning videos, and adapted the content to the German-speaking world through volunteer work. The German site (de.khanacademy.org) has about 50,000 monthly users.
Our current goal:
Bringing Khan Academy to German-speaking schools! The platform can uniquely support teachers in the classroom, where it can have the greatest impact. However, it requires initial training to understand its full potential: What exactly are mastery goals? How can I use them to motivate students and guide them towards independent learning?

How does your donation help us?
Your donation helps us in two ways:
Your donation helps us in two ways:
- We can specifically hire students for translations to continuously expand the content (€5 = subtitle a video, €25 = re-record a video or translate two exercises, €100 = specifically revise a learning unit and fill gaps).
- Bringing Khan to schools: Organizing training for teachers, supporting teachers in the implementation, and building a network. For this, we need a full-time specialist.
