Captions benefit all learners.  By taking the time to caption your videos now, it will also lessen the need for students to receive specific accommodations later.  

Tip
titleWhy Should I Caption?
  • Captions improve comprehension of a subject for all learners
  • Captions can be read by people who benefit from seeing and hearing words together such as people with certain learning disabilities, or visual learners, or English language learners
  • Captions provide access where sound isn't allowed, such as labs without speakers or compensate for noisy backgrounds or for poor audio quality.
  • Captions can help clarify when a person is unfamiliar with the subject terminology or the pronunciation of certain words
  • Captions are searchable, allowing people to search media files for a topic of interest


Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) Captions

Panopto gives users the ability to add ASR generated captions to videos.  Since these are machine-generated captions, they are not the same as human transcription, users should review and revise the captions to ensure accuracy.  Captions are normally generated within 8 hours of the request, but for longer videos > 1hr, it may take up to one day for captions to be generated.

  1. Locate the video you want to add captions to in Panopto and press Edit.
    Edit Zoom Video to add captions
