If your teaching entails portions of PowerPoint presentation, you can use live captions to provide a more accessible experience for learners.
“Automatic captions in PowerPoint” by Teaching and Learning Conestoga, prepared by the Online Learning Center, 2020. Retrieved June 24th, 2020.
The narration will only work as long as you’re showing PowerPoint presentations, but adding in Q&A slides and using the Remote Presentation Template will help make presentation portions more accessible to many learners.
