Using transcripts in conjunction with videos

An interesting tool that I learned from Dr van Hees was using the video transcript along side the video. This allows the students to use their sense of hearing and sight together to make sense of their learning. The transcript from YouTube is not always accurate and you will definitely need to proofread and edit it. It can be done as follows:

 Step 1: Open your video as normal
Step 2: Click the three dots





Step 3: Transcript will pop up on the side


It is easy to assume that the students are able to listen to the video and make sense of it but we've all sang many misheard lyrics to know that this is not always the case.
