Description

It would be nice to have these on the website. As part of the About....
e.g. "Learning and Accessibility..." under the top right?
I suggest it is a list where if you click on the subtitle you see the description and discussion.
Of course this list must be accessible :-)

- [ ] Add the following list to a json file.

The learning and accessibility benefits of ClassTranscribe

Time-accurate shareable moments
Students and instructors can share and discuss specific time of a specific video, in emails and external course forums
Other systems expect a course to use the video discussion forum, or make it hard to share a link.

Resume watching
Use learning time efficiently, not just restart from beginning
Continue watching even between devices, so that students can maximize their attention and use of their time.

Analytics for students
Summary statistics inform each student about their actual learning habits
Students can check their actual learning strategies against their beliefs.

Per student learning and engagement analytics
Instructors can see check how engaged each student is with the content
Other systems generate video-based reports not learning and engagement analytics

Detailed per-student clickstream data
Research how students use video systems to learn. Data joinable with gradebook
Other systems do not provide detailed student data

Automated Translations
International non-native-speaking students can overcome language barriers
Other systems do not provide alternative languages

Instructor caption editing
With a single click instructor can quickly fix caption errors inplace
Other systems require tedious download/upload vtt file and training or third-party tool

Crowdsourced caption editing
Students in the class can fix caption errors (not just wait for instructor)
Captions in multiple languages can be improved in all courses.

Downloadable captions
Students can download captions and transcriptions
ClassTranscribe students can download captions in multiple languages.

Multiple playback streams
Lecture room capture, signing, secondary technical viewpoints

ADD/ADHD & Cognitive support
Configurable, low-distraction, guided intuitive interface
ClassTranscribe minimizes distractions, provides a customizable interface (e.g. transcriptions can be hidden; multiple video streams can be placed) and uses dynamic user experience to focus attention

First class mobile and tablet interface
Students on the go need learning features available on all their multiple devices
Today's students want to watch and learn using multiple form factors and need a learning-centered interface on all of their devices.

Motor disabilities (e.g. full keyboard) support
Provide full accessibility support and efficient shortcuts for power users
Other systems often do not provide full access to all accessibility features using a keyboard only interface

Blind and Low-vision support
Interface uses non-thin fonts and high contrast colors. Audio description channel
Other systems do not support Audio Descriptions for blind users!

Deaf and Hearing impaired support
Captions and transcriptions. Caption rendering and display is configurable.
Other systems provide limited caption options.

ePub digital book generation
Using automated scene detection instructors can create digital books from long videos
Instructors and accesibility specialists can quickly provide equitable content in multiple formats and mediums.

Automatic live mirroring of external playlists
New content from upstream sources available without instructor intervention
ClassTranscribe will automatically detect new content added to other video platforms and storage systems (e.g. Box, Kaltura, Youtube,echo360), download new additions, caption and translate and prepare them for accessible viewing. Other systems can only schedule lecture room-recordings.

Intelligent search
To find right video moment students can use rapid text search across course videos
Others may have some basic support for searching or highlighting within the current video.

Quantitative evaluation of positive learning outcomes
Peer-reviewed statistically significant exam improvements for students at high and low competency levels
See for example, "Who Benefits?..." SIGCSE 2020.
