Automatic Captioning in Kaltura
Instructors can requests automatic captions for their media in Kaltura. Although automatic captions are helpful, they do not meet the requirements for student accomodations given the usual error rate. Student Accessibility Services will provide captioning given a student accomodation.
Learn more about Using Kaltura REACH to request automatic captions and access the Caption Editor to make corrections and improvements.
