Numeric is interested in finding ways to increase access to and usability of Khan Academy in South Africa. If you've never heard of Khan Academy, it is an outstanding online learning tool primarily targeted at school level mathematics. You can read more here, or check out their website directly at www.khanacademy.org. But we're not only talking about accessibility and usability, we're putting our money where our mouth is and taking it into the field ourselves! Numeric is piloting Khan Academy in township and rural areas in the Eastern and Western Cape, translating the videos into Xhosa, and providing useful tools for teachers and learners to make this resource more user friendly.

A few local projects focussed on translating Khan academy videos into Xhosa as well as giving township youth mentorship and support in mathematics on a Saturday morning.
