TEXTO I
A Free World-class Education for Anyone Anywhere
The Khan Academy is an organization on a mission. We're a not-for-profit with the goal of changing
education for the better by providing a free education to anyone anywhere. All of the site's resources are
available to anyone. The Khan Academy's materials and resources are available to you completely free of
charge.
TEXTO II
I didn't have a problem with Khan Academy Site until very recently. For me, the problem is the way
Academy is being promoted. The way the media sees it as '’revolutionizing education". The way people
with power and money view education as simply "sit-and-get". If your philosophy of education is "sit-and-
get", i.e., teaching is telling and learning is listening, then Khan Academy is way more efficient than
classroom lecturing. Khan Academy does it better. But TRUE progressive educators, TRUE education
visionaries and revolutionaries don't want to do these things better. We want to DO BETTER THINGS.

30. [UFU] A Shoe Engineered to Boost Performance

Imagine a shoe that lets you run faster, pivot better and jump higher. That’s the idea behind the Futurecraft
4D, a new sneaker whose midsole can be expertly tailored to the needs of its wearers—not only in size and
shape, but also in flexibility, impact type, cushioning and more. The key is the 3-D printing process, which
enables the company to “look at every single square millimeter of a midsole and tune it from a performance
standpoint,” says Al VanNoy, who headed the project. It would take weeks to make those modifications using
traditional shoemaking methods. But the Futurecraft 4D midsoles can be printed in as little as two hours,
meaning they could even be produced in stores. At least that’s a possibility for the future.

Based on the text, Futurecraft 4D

a) can be personalized to match the wearer´s midsole.
b) is already available in specialized shoe stores in the USA.
c) uses traditional shoemaking methods for better results.
d) was developed with the help of 4-D printing technology.
