You Khan Do It!

Sorry, I couldn't resist the pun. But it is true: you can do it! You Khan do math, chemistry, biology, even art history! The Khan Academy is a fantastic online resource loaded with thousands of short lectures to supplement your learning in a wide range of subjects.

TRIO is now requiring all of its students to create a Khan Academy account. It is that good!

The greatest strength of the Khan Academy is a plethora of math lectures, ranging from arithmetic to calculus and beyond. The lectures are arranged in proper order. As you gain proficiency in one area, the software then directs you on to the next topic. Your progress is tracked through your account, so you can see how you are doing!

TRIO staff and tutors implement the Khan Academy to provide more robust, directed supplemental instruction for a greater number of students in the TRIO program. All students will benefit from participating in the Khan Academy, whether the need is for intensive math tutoring, brushing up on biochemistry, or curriculum for a study group.

And the icing on the cake - it's free! This day and age, you cannot afford to miss out on such an opportunity to develop and practice your knowledge!

Let me say one more time, check out the Khan Academy.
