In 2012, Sal Khan wrote The One World Schoolhouse, which outlines how modern education developed and how Khan Academy came to be. The book outlines a vision for the future of both in-person and online education, given the tools we have and the need to participate in the knowledge economy. In 2014, he founded Khan Lab School to test and refine these ideas in an actual school setting.
