DDL: Captioning Course Material: Current Issues and Creative Solutions

• In Event: Roundtables Thur3
  In Roundtable Session: DDL - Roundtables Thur3

Short Description

Captioning is a legal, ethical, and Universal Design for Learning (UDL) issue that affects professors teaching online. For informal class videos, professional captioning may not be feasible. Results will be briefly shared from a research study focused on auto generated captions for graduate courses. Creative approaches to addressing accessibility will be shown and discussed including tools that allow students to crowd-source captioning. Participants will then dialogue on best practices, barriers, ideas, and future research directions.
