What are Teaching Talks?
Join us for an hour of your day to connect with your colleagues. These sessions serve as a springboard for discussions around a topic related to teaching and learning but really give you the chance to share the success and challenges you are facing in our new teaching reality. Each session has a topical theme but is shaped by the participants’’ discussion, needs, and interests.

The thematic focus for this particular session is designing online activities and assessments that are inclusive.

Proposed Objectives:
• Discuss multi-modal activities and assessments for inclusivity
• Discuss simple things you can do and why they’re a good idea
• Review common pitfalls
• Share what’s on your mind

DIY Closed Captioning & Creating Accessible Digital Content

Thursday, June 4th, 2020

11:00 AM - 12:00 PM

We will discuss best practice when captioning and will explore two applications (Kaltura and YouTube) that can be used to create closed captions for your videos. Both use computer-generated captioning which often requires that captions be edited by the video owner to improve accuracy. Research has shown that closed captions can benefit all learners as they watch the video content.

Learn more about it here: https://er.educause.edu/articles/2017/8/a-rising-tide-how-closed-captions-can-benefit-all-students.

In addition, we’ll explore tools that you can use to make your documents accessible such as tagging images, using styles in Microsoft Word, etc.

Once registered and if you will be attending via online please plan to join 10 minutes before the session begins to make sure you connect successfully.
