Captioning and Transcription
Captioning of video and transcription of audio materials can make them more accessible to every student, but is critical for students who need it. There are options
within Google Docs for speech-to-text transcription.
While not perfect using this can save a large amount of time.Instructional Technology has access to a captioning service that may be leveraged in an instructor has video that needs to be captioned. Turn around time for this service depends greatly on the length and complexity of the source material, but files generally are available within 10 business days from submission. If you have students who need materials to be captioned please contact Instructional Technology well in advance of when you will need the materials.
