Khan Academy Adds New Ways to Motivate Student Practice
Khan Academy Blog

EDITOR BRIEF
Khan Academy is introducing new features to help students stay motivated while they practice. The excerpt mentions Missions for guidance, clearer progress tracking, Gems to recognize effort, personalization with Khanmigo, and class celebrations. It also says Gem Challenges build on LearnStorm by keeping shared goals and visible progress simple for everyday classroom use.
INSIGHTS
For learners, this shows how progress cues and small rewards can support consistency. If you are building an app, try adding clear next steps and visible milestones so users know what to do and can see their effort add up.
