“New organizational features will provide more structure, dividing a collection of videos into chapters around key concepts, starting from beginner to more advanced,” Mohan wrote in his post. “Additionally, recommendations will be hidden from the watch page, allowing the viewer to focus on the lesson at hand.”
Channels like Khan Academy, TED-Ed, and Crash Course are now a part of the test phase.
