Content update request - World War I – Khan Academy

Hello Khan Academy,

First of all i’d like to thank for such a great environment to learn!! This is really amazing!!

My request is around the WWI videos.. they are pretty good and teach many things but i want to point out two things:
- i completed all WWI videos but they are mainly focusing on east and west fronts in Europe and also some in middle east, but there is almost nothing about the fronts of Ottoman: nothing at all about Dardanelles, and just 1-2 sentences about east front with Russia. I don't think this course set gives the whole idea of the war.. cause its mainly focusing on German France UK Russia and US...
- Armenian genocide.. it’s not smth that is accepted by everybody as mentioned in the videos. There are still arguments and conflicts around it. So i request to have some changes in videos like adding an “it is believed that” statement before declaring anything. For example the instructor is very very careful about his statements around middle east, israel etc, which i did appreciate a lot. I’d expect the same for this sensitive topic too.

Thanks for your time in advance for taking this into consideration.

Hi Hasibe,

Thanks for posting! These sound like good areas to have more emphasis on and items that would provide a more detailed, in-depth, and complete account of the time period. I'll definitely see what I can do push for content updates. I love history myself and would like to learn more about the events of WWI from Khan Academy videos.

If there are more points that you would like to see an emphasis on, always feel free to edit your post or add additional thoughts in a comment. Thank you again for posting; we always love to hear ideas and suggestions that can improve Khan Academy for the world!
