Make Your Course Accessible

YuJa Panorama—which is already integrated into your Moodle course—helps check and improve the accessibility of course materials and resources. Panorama can also generate alternative formats of documents for you and students. For more information, visit the OLET Knowledge Base article on Panorama.
The TinyMCE Text Editor has many tools to assist in entering content into your course. Many of these icons and functions should be familiar to anyone who uses a word processor. Additionally, it includes tools to help make your content more accessible. For more information, visit the Using the TinyMCE Text/HTML Editor article.
Kaltura will automatically machine caption videos in English when recorded by or moved into My Media. However, if the spoken language is French, German, Russian, Spanish, or Vietnamese, you will need to request machine captioning in that specific language. Machine captioning is fast, simple, and decently accurate (75-85%) but may struggle with acronyms and industry-specific words. However, you can edit the machine captions. If an accommodation from the Disability Resource Center (DRC) requires 100% accuracy, you can request human captioning. For more information, visit the OLET Knowledge Base article on Adding Closed-Captions (CC).
