DCMP videos include transcripts of the caption and description files. Interactive Transcripts scroll "live" as the video plays, with words highlighted in yellow as they are captioned or spoken so that students can follow along. Interactive Transcripts are accessible by screen readers.

How to Share a DCMP Video in Zoom

Teachers can use video conferencing apps like Zoom to share DCMP videos with students. Sharing DCMP videos in Zoom appears to work fine on Apple computers, but some Zoom users report issues with Windows. While we recommend creating Student Accounts for reliability, we have found a solution that may work if you are using the Chrome browser in Windows.
