This video explains how to produce a video transcript (what was said verbally in the video produced as a text file) based on the closed captions which Panopto produces. Some students and viewers may require this for note-taking or accessibility reasons.
In the video, a tool is used to clean up the text from the closed caption file. You can access this tool here (full URL: https://amsglob0cdnstream13.azureedge.net/vttcleaner/CleanVTT.html). This tool operates within the web browser and is not transferring your information to a third-party.
I have been working in the Educational Technology field within Higher Education for eleven years. A big part of my job is finding new and innovative ways of integrating technology into current teaching and learning methodology. This can include assisting academic staff with Virtual Learning Environments/Learning Management Systems (Blackboard), implementing specific software packages, maximising current technologies and championing new ones. I find this profession both riveting and rewarding. I really enjoy life on the cutting edge, but I also enjoy being able to help staff achieve small and meaningful efficiencies; sometimes that makes all the difference.
