Accessible Audio/Video Materials
If your student is approved for Closed Captioning (CC) as an accommodation, all video and web media must be provided with closed captioning in order to maintain compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Please consider finding video resources and materials that already have captions. If you must use a resource which is not already captioned, the Office of Accessibility Resources and Services is available to help ensure you have accessible materials for your students.
Please provide the Office of Accessibility Resources and Services with a list of any uncaptioned films you are using during your class this upcoming semester so we can begin captioning the films for you. Please submit a request for closed captioning in Accommodate. You can also send such a list to [email protected]. This process can be very lengthy, so please ensure sufficient lead time for OARS to complete the process (at least 2 weeks prior to needing the materials in class).
Please contact OARS at (336) 841-9026 if you have any questions.
