Closed Captioning Videos
The college has a service called Cielo24 which will provide closed captioning for video. Please contact the Technology Center Service Desk to request this service.Accessibility for YouTube
- In order to be accessible, YouTube videos must include captions that reflect all audio information, including sound effects or music, and identify speakers. YouTube will generate captions for most videos subsequent to upload, but machine-generated captions may be inaccurate and will probably require editing. University of Minnesota provides useful information on creating accessible video captions in YouTube. WGBH offers a free Caption and Descriptive editing tool called CADET.
- Note: YouTube videos uploaded to the college's official YouTube channel – TheMiddlesexCC – are automatically captioned by an external closed captioning service called Cielo24 .
