Summary

The Khan Academy has over 1000 videos of classes and lectures in a variety of subjects, all CC-BY-SA licensed. Wikipedia should work with them to host these and provide translations and subtitles and updates and to create new lessons.

Proposal

The videos are CC-BY-SA licensed so Wikipedia could host these without further discussion however it would probably be more valuable to find ways to cooperate and work together.

Motivation

To make lessons and teaching units available on the web for anyone who wants to learn.

Potential Costs

This would be a primary candidate to use the video hosting and editting tools wikipedia is developing at the moment
