Adding Closed Captions to the slides


Closed Captions make your eLearning content more accessible and more interesting for the learners. There are many situations where Closed Captions are useful:

  • They make your Captivate projects accessible for hearing-impaired students

  • They make the project easier to understand for foreign students

  • They are useful for learners who have to take the online course in an office and don't want to bother their colleagues with voice-over narrations

For these reasons (plus the ones not listed here), it is a good idea to use Closed Captions each time you add voice-over narration to a slide.

In Captivate, Closed Captions are always associated with a slide-level audio clip or with a Multi-Slide Synchronized Video inserted by navigating to Video | Insert Video.

As for Text-to-Speech narration, the text of the Closed Captions is found in the Slide Notes panel.

In the next exercise, you will add Closed Captions to the Encoder Demonstration.
