Closed Captioning, Print Friendly Web Pages, Edulastic

Closed Captioning

Closed Captioning is an underutilized digital learning tool!  It is not only necessary for our students who have this in their student plans but it is a great literacy tool for all students.  Schools in Finland are mandated to use Closed Captioning for anything projected on a screen or for student viewing.  They believe their literacy rates improved because of this.  They do have the highest literacy rates in the world. Encourage parents to use closed captioning at home for ongoing literacy practice. If you need help learning how to use CC, please ask your Digital Learning Specialist.
