Kids Teaching Kids has developed a free service that will ultimately allow any kid with access to a cell phone or computer to watch a video teaching how to solve every problem in every textbook.

Does that sound impossible? Consider these statistics: YouTube now has two billion, views a day; every day 35,000 hours of video is uploaded to YouTube.

The educational system acts on kids as if they are objects, without voice or intelligence. Imagine if the idea of competitive shows like America’s Funniest Home Videos could be harnessed to motivate the creation of exciting, entertaining educational videos.
