Captions for Faculty / Staff
Per federal and state law, and CSU policy, instructional media (e.g., videos,听captured lectures, recorded presentations) must have captions. This includes instructional media used in classrooms, posted on websites or听shared in Canvas or Panopto.
Faculty:听Funding is available to help faculty generate captions and transcripts for听instructional media. Submit your request(s) for media captioning as soon as possible.
Staff:听For 快活林性息 staff who do not provide classroom material, there is a cost through chargeback.听 For information on the chargeback, email听ncod@csun.edu
Relevant Accommodations
Videos are automatically captioned in Zoom, Panopto, Google Slides, PowerPoint 365, Otter.ai, YouTube, Camtasia,听or any other automatic captioned programs that听are computer-generated, are听not 99% accurate; therefore, they are not acceptable for students that need accommodation.听If a class has a student with a relevant approved accommodation, whether the class will be taught live or feature pre-recorded videos, all instructional and public-facing videos must be captioned appropriately.
