Maqsood Khan

Business mentor, Educator/Teacher, Entrepreneur

I was brought up in Lahore, Pakistan. Educated in Lahore, Karachi, Hong Kong, Sydney and Singapore.

I am passionate about computers, education and new research in technology.

We can use information technology for education and information in areas with no access to internet. Using very cheap computers as servers and mobiles with offline open source educational content already available and produced by local community. Peer learning with offline content can boost learning in poor rural areas.

I was collecting content to develop local offline digital library for K-12 Students and was looking for high quality and engaging content with creative common license and I came across TED-Ed. I liked the project so much that I decided to involve and participate and now I am a translator for TED.
