Teacher Ellen Reller uses Khan Academy curriculum in her high school classroom in Lowell High School in California.

See excerpt:

Then I gave the first assignment, a set of 6 progressively harder drawings, and gave students 2 weeks to work on them. As I’d walk around the room, I would pay close attention to their questions, and I would tailor the next lessons I gave around those questions. I keep those lessons to less than 10 minutes at the beginning of each class, to give students a lot of time to work on their programs. I try to teach with programs that they can re-use, adapt, and change as they learn more.
