The article was featured in December 2008. It was resurface again this March 2010 in a Straits Times article. Youtube has become a place not just for watching some funny videos. It can be useful in teaching and learning. Salman Khan from a not for profit organization Khan Academy has created 1000+ videos teaching maths and other subjects. Many of his 'students' found his video useful because of its ability to keep thing simple. each video focuses on a single concept and keeps the videos to a digestible 10-20 minutes. And best of all, is free!
The technology employed was very simple - Microsoft Paint and a on screen recording software. May be is time for us to do a similar Youtube on programming?
