Why captions?
Besides providing equal access for the deaf and hard of hearing, captions and transcripts aid users in a number of ways. Captions and transcripts make your content SEARCHABLE, meaning search engines can find or “see” your audio/visual material through keywords. Students can read along with video material for better comprehension and retention. Language learning is also greatly enhanced. Ultimately, transcripts or captions can help your user find and engage with your material more easily, and more deeply.
