Energy Points are given for completing skills, earning badges, watching videos, participating in discussions and a variety of other tasks. Before Khan Academy's new layout in 2014, the number of energy points a user currently has was visible at the top right of any page on Khan Academy, right next to the username and Achievements report on Khan.
Users can now see their energy points on the new personalized homepage, Learning Dashboard or in their User profile.
