Overview: This webinar will focus on the importance of Closed Captioning (CC) and how to provide access to pre-recorded videos utilizing Veed.io and YouTube during virtual learning. The goal of this webinar is for participants to independently include Closed Captions (CC) on pre-recorded videos to accommodate students who are deaf/hard of hearing (HH) and promote equal auditory access within their lessons. Participants will be given access to a live tutorial, question and answer session, and pre-recorded tutorials to begin using these features.
