Video Captioning
The Walker Center provides training and documentation for creating editing, and captioning video course content. It is the instructor's responsibility to verify the accuracy of the captions, and to edit those captions as needed.
YouTube
YouTube is a video-sharing website owned by Google. Users can upload videos (lecture capture, tutorials, assignments, etc.) to the site and share them with as many or as few users as they choose. Faculty and staff are encouraged to use YouTube as an option to store video content and share with students.
YouTube can automatically generate closed captions for videos uploaded to the site, but may require editing.
Videos uploaded to YouTube can be viewed on smartphones and tablets, as well as laptops and desktop computers.
Faculty, staff and students can create a YouTube channel for free, with unlimited storage using their Mocs+ Gmail account.
