There's no better way to avoid a history paper than procrastinating by learning! This series is great!

[lorenzomontenegro]

Keep educating the world, ASU and Crash Course!

[monac.a.]

Everyone really appreciates this series so much. Thank you for releasing this! We can't wait for the next one!

[bachirbelmessaoud]

I find that this course is of a higher learning value than most of the ones on "premium" platforms. Thank you

[patrickmeehan]

Thanks for this course, ASU and CC! Very concrete and actionable (sorry for the buzzwords but they fit so well).


For timed list making, I think the writers for this series should add the sentence "if you are writing non-fiction, your ideas will only come from hours and hours of research and familiarizing yourself with them enough for them to be on the cusp of your mind."


In other words, timed list making only works, for non-fiction, with a great depth of previous knowledge.

Watching it over and over again. Really great content. Can't wait for the rest of the series!

This is actually more helpful than I first thought, I write spec scripts so this comes in handy... Happy writing friends 🧐

[danielyahalom]

Thank you so much for this series! I know this is just the second episode but I'm already learning so much useful stuff... while procrastinating on a writing assignment...

I’m not living in the States but I’m low key wanna choose ASU for Uni. These are so helpful. Thank you for the videos! Please keep it up.

This is so educational especially to us who have a bad impression on writing. This changes my perception towards writing. Thanks for this, ASU and CC! I am looking forward for updates.

P.S. Yumna, you really like chocolates/brownies. ☺️

This is so nice! Good job on your presentation skills, they are awesome!

Why are you people (ASU or whatnot) hiding the likes -- these videos are well made? Why worry? Stats are interesting. [Commented: August 24, 2020]

At the end of my English 101 ASU class and this is a great review and resource for me. The Rhetorical analysis paper had me for a while till these videos came. Don't get me wrong, those videos on the syllabus were great but for some strange reasons, I like these videos more. #ASUonline

[luamfernandez]

Did the speech of this video get written through the method it's describing?

[orethon]

Is there a transcript of this. It is inaccessible for me

[CanRotaryLife]

Been dumb my whole life. Time to get a masters degree :, )

[TheElectricCheeseProductions]

I thought this was going to be a video about composing Inventions...

[utvtgqs]

bro, why don't you allow likes and dislikes?

[anaml]

I hate that I feel this way, but your voice gets pretty squeaky and it hurts my ears. I really need to kearn how to compose and the information is great but you lowering the and suddenly rising it hurts. Sorry 🙊
