Getting the Attention of Bill Gates

by Chataun Denis on 04/07/11

What started out as Sal making a few algebra videos for his cousins has grown to over 2,100 videos and 100 self-paced exercises and assessments covering everything from arithmetic to physics, finance, and history. At the time this article was being written, over 41 million lessons had been viewed.

This small team is on a mission to deliver a world-class education to anyone anywhere and started with just one person (Sal), a computer, and a pen tablet mouse. Sal's vision is to have this computer learning resource available in classrooms across the world. He is well on his way thanks to his new and biggest fan...Mr. Bill Gates himself!  This is a testament to social entrepreneurs across the globe. Your ideas can in fact change the world.
