Crash Course started out as a series to help teach subjects that students are likely to be struggling with in school. Now it's a series that teaches subjects I wish my school had taught.

This was an attempt to get us to watch the course! I see you Crash Course Media Literacy. 👀

[B.W.Jackson]

I don’t know if it’s the cadence, timbre, or years of experience, but something about Smooth’s voice here just really gets in my head in a really good way. It’s like I can feel information being physically installed between the lobes of my brain.

[eddiema]

This is why i love the channel. You don't just make courses about things to help people get better grades, or sell stuff, but you make courses that everyone should be taught! Good job!

I was a communication/journalism major in college so when I saw you all were doing this, it made me so happy! This is a great refresher course. Thank you!

[rollingthrees]

THIS IS THE COURSE THAT WE NEED ASAP!! Hope there are many subtitles as possible to reach more people about media literacy

[georgia]

jaysmooth! ive been watching you forever. it's great to see you and crash course come together

[earl-grey-milk-tea]

we need this, more than ever. props to you guys, looking forward to this!

[Librarymania]

As a librarian, this has me screaming.

[tropezando]

Well OBVIOUSLY this is completely unnecessary, since everyone in the comments has already declared themselves experts.

[JulieDiana]

I took a class in high school called Media in America and it was one of my favorite classes :) so I can't wait to revisit that! (7 years later)

[andspenrob]

Never expected to see Jay Smooth of all people on Crash Course, but I'm thrilled! Worlds are colliding!

[bookwormwen]

Ooh, this is exciting! Media literacy is a skill I'd love to develop.

[ShariOliver]

Extremely important for EVERYONE to be aware! I was very unprepared for the wake up call a course covering this topic in college gave me. Can't wait!

[k_rinabeena]

I've never heard someone sound more like a radio host omgg he's on air 24/7
really looking forward to this crash course series

[ekimkara]

I’m excited to see the course! Thank you to CrashCourse for making the contents quick & interesting & free & publicly available! This course is barely related to my major (molecular biology) but it takes me closer to my dreams!

Thank you for expanding the limits of old fashioned books & papers & college into this fast, rapid and efficient new world of internet & technology. Keep up the good work! 💕

[Dracalis]

Oh heck yes, Jay Smooth! I'm stoked for this course.

[michellem]

This topic is just so important. Media is all around us, it’s so important to have the skills to analyse it.

[seangadus]

Awesome! I love this topic and talk to my students about it all the time! Can't wait to watch these every week!

[Luxalpa]

Sounds awesome already! Can't wait to watch all of it <3
