“For many years, Netflix has allowed teachers to screen documentaries in their classrooms. However, this isn’t possible with schools closed. So at their request, we have made a selection of our documentary features and series available on the Netflix US YouTube channel,” Netflix said in a blog post.
Netflix also is making available educational resources with each title, including study guides and Q&As with some of the creators behind the documentary projects.
