Challenges

• In the future, all schools may be required to add captions to all online video content

• Estimated cost for EP to complete this in FY 15 is approximately $325,000

Strategy

• Captioning responsibilities delegated across instructional technology staff– Multimedia staff support instructional designers,

who then assist faculty with captioning– All new online courses, as well as online courses

going through redesign should be captioned
