is we all learn at different paces and we end up accumulating gaps and eventually hitting walls in algebra or calculus or whatever and the opportunity now is we can use tools like khan academy to allow for personalization and differen teacher with 30 students or 25 students, i can cater to the individual needs of those students so that's the biggest change and we're already seeing that in a lot of classrooms, and i would also want to move for what decall to a mastery or competency-based world n.higher education your entire education is based on credit hours, based on how much seat time you're in a chair and it should be based on can you show your mastery or creating a portfolio of work. >> that's exactly in trying to learn statistics at my age, that's how i came across khan academy recently. you guys do a tremendous amount of work for people of all ages. sal, thank you for joining us. >> thank you. >> sal khan. >>> now here's a look at what's making news as we head into a new week "on the money." stocks are going on a record run and having a big old party. the dow closed at a new high on t

kid could get into college and at $200 a crack you had to pay some knuckle head to help your kid in algebra and calculus and writing. if you are from a disadvantaged family or neighborhood you are computely behind the 8-ball. they partnered to develop a program for free s.a.t. prep. works like this. in 11th grade you get the psat. they say, tom, you're really good. you did good. but you have a problem with fractions and right angles. then it takes me directly to an academy site devoted just to the fractions and right angle problems i missed. if i do well it takes me another site that suggests maybe i can do a.p. math in 12th grade. if do i well it takes me to another site that offers 200 scholarships. last year 200 million kids availed themselves of free s.a.t. prep of this intelligent algorithm and this is going on in so many other ways throughout the work force today. so that's just an example of how people are dealing with it in the workplace. let me close and be able to take one or two questions by talking about how ethics are being reshaped by these accelerations which i think not only

one example his 14-year-old son and daughter sent him a snap of an algebra problem that referenced textingotos. the superintendent says the school district conducted a complete investigation into the matter and issued the math teacher a written reprimand. >> to just wash it under the table and not do an actual investigation and see exactly where this is going it's just setting a bad precedent for other teachers that might end up going down this road. >> blare says that was not enough for him so he took his children out of that teacher's class. >> in tech bytes another hot holiday gift nearly sold out. >> amazon's voice controlled speaker echo has sold out on amazon.com but you can fine them in amazon stores. they'll be back in stock online next tuesday. >>> move over amazon and google. 7-eleven is making regular deliveries by drone. >> the chain and drone maker flirty have made 77 drone deliveries in reno. deliveries typically take less than 10 minutes. mark zuckerberg is showing offer the artificial intelligence he's built to help run his home. >> the a.i. called jarvis inspired by the sy

in fact, it's pretty much a no-brainer because if thhe pump more than they are, then the algebra works. oil stays higher for now. but there's another aspect opec can't count on. that's the u.s. the saudis have created an umbrella under which the u.s. producers with oil that's profitable under 50 bucks can really turn on their spigots, take up the slack. not necessarily to the point of driving crude back down, especially if there's a pick-up in the global economy. but certainly to the point where production estimates, what the analysts follow, are too low for our american independents. producers with good exposure to the permian basin, which can make money at half this price, or the oklahoma area known as scoop, which is in some parts equally profitable. hence how you can see such exaggerated gains in an eog or pioneer or cimarex. they've made huge investments when things were low and acquisitions of the best parts of texas while oil was way down. now they're prepared to reap the harvest of this saudi umbrella. i still like those stocks, but i would now wait for a better entry point. th

that trust that you create between writer and reader so they say well this is awfully weird there's algebra in the footnote on page 242 but i'm going to trust this is something i need to get through. you create the feeling they're not going to waste the reader's time and energy i think i do that pretty wrel. >> rose: take a look at this list. liar's poker, the money culture, pacific grip, loses the new new thing, next, moneyball, the blind side, home game, boomerang, the big short, flash boys and now this. the undoing project. where do you put this? >> you know i never said this about a book before but it's the best book i've written. >> rose: because it's done better. >> the degree of difficulty was high. and also the quality of the teller and importance of the material it's off the charts. >> rose: when amos died what did he know? did he feel like oh may god, we're just getting going and here i am going away. >> the last thing he wanted to know was whether and i think there's some evidence that he kept himself alive just to find out was whether netanyahu was going to went his first electi

>> you know, i know that is the argument, but since i went to summer school for algebra, i am not inexpert in the deficit in any way. and fact, to show you how bad enough i had, the night of the election is assuming we would have president clinton because i was adding up numbers in my head. if you have 94% of blacks who disapproved of view and 75% of women disapprove of you and 90% of latinos disapprove of view, you can't be president. that is when it again. i don't know. i'm going to have to take your guidance on that. i know that's confusing with trump, but again what is happening right this minute is all these different groups are seen him as a malleable host body that they can pour their thing into so it just depends which person. our reporters say he tends to listen to the last person you talked to and that's why a lot of his advisers maneuver to be the last person. >> i would point out we are going to fix veterans affairs committee doled military. all of those are significant as well. >> i really fear reagan and bush devastating our economy. in terms of an interesting thought a

it's really hard to find a good argument for focusing on one disease or teaching algebra as opposed to trigonometry. it's not the question that ministry finance is going to but beyond that, our since that ministry finance tends to think of the social sectors. which include health education and social welfare. we have to put it in an even broader context. i think we have to face the issues that have been touched on -- outside health is not considered an efficient ministry in terms of budget educated -- execution and results. i was really close by saying i think this initiative is an important opportunity to go from an initiative to a sustained long-term response. >> thank you, david. let's say. we have about half an hour. maybe i will go through one round with you and we'll bo the audience to prepare your questions. so, you know, given that we are at the cusp of a new administration and the uncertainty is that involves, i wonder if you could reflect on scenarios for pepfar going further what, you would hope the globe fund would be doing differently going forward as a result of any uncer
