    I personally struggle with holding thoughts more than 15 to 20 seconds at a time. The quick pace of this series is just right to hold my attention, and I feel the amount of information is just right. I have sat through these traditional courses, and after waiting for people who don't understand to ask all their questions I am already thinking of something else other than the subject matter. Thank you crash course.

    The whole point of "Crash Course" is that it is presented in a "crash" of information. The whole reason why it works is as a supplement to proper lectures, or with liberal use of either the pause button, or the replay button. This has been true since the beginning of this channel. - verdatum

    P/s : read that some people thought that the teacher is talking too fast. I think that's not a problem though, some people need to study in a fast way, so they need to make a video no longer than 10 minutes. For those who can't catch up what she is saying (which happens to me too) I recommend you guys to pause the video to digest all of the information in your mind before moving on to another new information.
    Have a great day ! ♡

    Hate to be that guy, but you really have a special ability to explain a relatively simple concept in the most confusing way possible. If your audience includes people who do not know what refraction is, then speeding through the sentence "this phenomenon of light rays changing direction at the interface between media" is going to leave them clueless. I know the point of this channel is to teach quickly, hence "crash course", but you aren't teaching at all when you talk like that. Just some advice from a teacher. Peace.

      FWIW, it's REALLY hard to write something that's compact and makes perfect sense to all audiences on the first viewing. And this is especially true in the realm of physics. I think that's part of why the viewcounts on CC Physics tend to be particularly low. I often try to think of how I could write a better episode on the topics, and yeah, it ain't easy.

      Legend Length: the problem is that before your brain has processed the information in this sentence, the presenter is far into the next sentence. The natural pause between the sentences, whatever originally was there, has been edited out to speed it up even further. It is speeding through complex sentences which is the problem, not the complex sentence in itself.

    Woh, woh, woh! SLOW DOWN! In normal crashcourse videos it is good to edit out the pauses in speech to get a quicker and more fluid video. In physics it does not work. The audience need the time to reflect on what is said, to grasp it, but the time is never given. Instead she just rushes through the script at neck breaking speed. And to top it off, throw in the occasional formula without explaining the symbols and hurriedly take it away before continuing rushing on. This could've been a great and instructive video, but sadly it isn't, because of the editing. Stop taking away all the pauses between sentences!

      I am currently studying Astrophysics at Uni, so I don't think it's that fast, but that's because I already know pretty much all of this. I suppose a person who doesn't will find it too fast.
      The ones I recommend the most are History and especially Astronomy. Phil Plait is such a great presenter and the whole series is wonderful.

    • @torestgard1681
      @torestgard1681 7 років тому +7

      If it takes a student in Astrophysics to follow it, it is clearly to fast-paced :) Target audience is high school students, isn't it?
      I'm a Uni student in physics as well, or rather chemistry perhaps - a mix of both really, so I think I have OK background. Still I feel the need for additional 0.3 seconds between sentences so that I have the time to verify what she says is correct.
      Both series on history are great. "wait for it... the mongols!" recurring joke! :) I liked the astronomy-series too. Great presenter! Most presenters are good, including this one, but the edit people let her down. I actually hoped the astronomy would be more advanced than it turned out to be. Thus I had great hopes for Physics.

    Question: for the last two sentences, she said that if the "image is upside down like in our converging lens, then the height is a negative value. And the ratio of the image distance to the object distance is also negative" If the equation is m [magnification] = hi/ho= -di/do, then how can this be true?
    If the image height is negative, shouldn't the image distance to object distance be positive to maintain the original equation?

    • @hidude1354
      @hidude1354 7 років тому

      You are correct that magnification can be shown from height and distance, but your formulas are incorrect. For height, it is: -(Object Height/Image Height). And for distance: -(Object Distance/Image Distance). Therefore, both equations are equivalent.
