Curious:在線學(xué)生視頻教學(xué)網(wǎng)是一個致力于為學(xué)生提供優(yōu)秀教學(xué)視頻的網(wǎng)站，主要是幫助學(xué)生提高動手能力，內(nèi)容主要涵蓋化學(xué)、攝影、數(shù)學(xué)、生活經(jīng)驗、哲學(xué)、運動項目教學(xué)等等。Curious網(wǎng)站上的所有視頻均是有知名教師錄制，所有視頻并不是全部免費，當(dāng)然免費的有很多，所涉及的內(nèi)容也相當(dāng)豐富，國內(nèi)用戶翻譯后可以當(dāng)作很經(jīng)典的學(xué)生教學(xué)案例來使用，不同的教學(xué)方式對學(xué)生有很多幫助，這里就不再闡述了，總是很多先進的教學(xué)方式不妨多參考國外，中西結(jié)合才是硬道理。在線教育平臺 Curious.com 近日宣布 B 輪獲 1500 萬美元投資，估值未知，據(jù) Re/code 消息，該輪由 GSV Capital 領(lǐng)投， Redpoint Ventures 及前蘋果董事 Bill Campbell 等跟投，GSV Capital 的 Michael Moe 也將加入 Curious.com 董事會。成立自 2012 年，截至目前，Curious.com 累計融資額達 2250 萬美元。Curious.com 是一家氣質(zhì)獨特的在線教育平臺，內(nèi)容以用戶自己制作的“How-to” 類視頻為主，你幾乎可以找到生活中各個領(lǐng)域的教程，從“焊接基礎(chǔ)”到“ 莎莎舞 (salsa) 教程”，更有“珠寶制作教程”和“磨刀秘訣”等等。相較 Udemy、Khan Academy、Lynda.com 等，它的最大差別在于，Curious 更追求便利和即時性，教學(xué)視頻較短、內(nèi)容切得更小，學(xué)生可以自由安排學(xué)習(xí)時間，它同時也有自己的虛擬貨幣 Curious Coin，讓老師更方便的推廣、分享及貨幣化自己的課程。內(nèi)測 5 個月，便已經(jīng)累積了上萬名用戶。At Curious we believe in lifelong learning. Learning for its own sake. Learning that happens beyond classrooms, and not only in academic subjects (unless you count beer brewing, pipe soldering, and organic gardening as academic). Learning as a necessity of living.At Curious we also believe great teachers are as valuable to society as great business leaders or academic thinkers. We wonder why there are hundreds of high-tech ways to share silly photos, and military-grade technology can help us find our friends at a bar, but teachers have few quality tools to help them succeed online.We believe teachers are some of society’s greatest entrepreneurs and should be treated as such.We also believe that videos of cats dancing the Macarena, and super-slo-mo exploding watermelons are really cool, but not the kind of online learning we’re talking about. And that Justin’s new band only reminds us a little bit of this. But that’s another story...
