‘Free, world-class education’ service Khan Academy now available on Android

One of the best things about the Internet is the access it provides to free educational resources, and the Google-backed Khan Academy is one of the best examples. The non-profit launched an iPad app way back in 2012, and has now finally done the same for Android.

“A free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere.” This mission inspires us day in, day out, and we’ve seen over 30M students sign up on Khan Academy to learn almost anything for free. We know you love using Khan Academy more and more on your phones: in fact, over 30% of our sessions are now on mobile devices. We believe strongly that unlocking the potential for anyone, anywhere to learn on 2B+ smartphones worldwide is just getting started. Today Khan Academy is releasing our first Android app along with a redesigned iPhone app

The Academy offers more than 10,000 video tutorials in a wide range of subjects, from introductions to advanced high school level and beyond. It was one of Google’s partners in the summer Google Camp project designed to bring science lessons to kids.

The Android app is a free download on Google Play, and all courses are free.
