GuidelineDescription and How-To Information
Instructional videos must be closed captioned.Closed captions provide a text equivalent of your videos. Closed captions make your videos more accessible to non-native English speakers, deaf and hearing impaired students.
    • Students should contact the Disability Resource Educational Access Center for accommodations.


    • Tip: When reviewing instructional video for use in your classes, purchase videos that are already captioned.
If a video is already captioned, providing a transcript is highly recommended.Providing a transcript of your video assists hearing impaired, blind/low-vision students, non-native English speaking students, and students who prefer to follow videos with text.
    • For deaf/hearing impaired, provide a verbatim written transcript.

    • For blind/low vision, provide a descriptive, written transcript where actions and all relevant visual and auditory clues and actions are described.

    • Example: In a video for math, describe the action and location of X and Y, not simply say, "move the 'X' over here."

    • How to: In Blackboard, simply upload your transcript and include the link to the transcript along with your video.
Presentation of instructional videos (in class) may need to be accompanied by real-time accommodations (sign language interpreters, real-time video description, note takers, real-time transcription, etc).Students with disabilities should contact the Disability Resource Educational Access Center for accommodation. Instructors can contact DRC EAC for consultation.
