YouTube Is Investing $20 Million In Educational Content, Creators (theverge.com)

Posted by BeauHD on from the throwing-money-against-the-wall-and-seeing-if-it-sticks dept.

YouTube is creating a new Learning Fund program where it will invest $20 million toward education content. The announcement was made today by Malik Ducard, global head of learning. The Verge reports: Channels like TED-Ed, dedicated to educational Ted Talks, and Hank and John Green's Crash Course have already secured additional funding, according to YouTube's blog post. The company plans to invest in content from independent creators, like the Green brothers, as well as traditional news sources and educational organizations to broaden its content offering.

YouTube's Learning Fund has a nice ring to it, but it isn't a philanthropic charity. An FAQ about the program states that "successful applicants must enter into a written agreement with YouTube. This agreement will contain more details about required deliverables, payment timelines, and other terms and conditions." Creators must maintain a minimum of 25,000 subscribers. Those applying to the program also don't need to have a degree or proper certification in their field, "but successful applicants will be required to demonstrate that they have expertise and/or that the content they produce is verified by an expert in the field."

He talks about creativity as if it's a generic skill (It isn't), claims that schools kill creativity (They don't), & offers no concrete, falsifiable alternatives to current educational practices. In fact, he isn't an expert in education at all; he did his PhD in drama studies & knows little about the science of learning & teaching.

      I'm not c6gunner, and I'm not the only person who has criticized you over the port filtering comment. You seem to think these comments are the work of just one person. They are not. Lots of people find your behavior tiresome.

      There is no way to tell whether a particular anonymous coward post was actually posted by you or someone else. Anyone can post as an anonymous coward.

      There is a simple solution to the problem: create an account. If you log in to an account, you will avoid all impersonation issues. It's that simple.

      The reason you won't log in is because you abuse anonymous posting. If you logged in, you might be subjected to posting limits because of your karma. Part of your effort to circumvent those restrictions is that you post anonymously.

      Also, don't try to flip this around and complain that I'm posting anonymously but telling you to log in. Unlike you, I'm not alleging that anyone is impersonating me. My issue is that if you're going to post anonymously, don't complain that people are able to imitate your posting style.
