That's really not a lot. Probably blame a dumb and inflexible budgetary process.
- Turing_Machine 10y agoDoing a good video transcript takes more than 2x the running time of the video. A lot more. Really. Have you ever tried transcribing a video in a level of detail such that someone who can't see the video has a full understanding of what's going on? Give it a shot and report back to us. Source: I've actually transcribed instructional videos for disabled students. Update: Google suggests budgeting 4-9 hours of transcription time per hour, which is closer to my experience. You might get by with 4 hours if it was just someone talking (with no slides, etc.). If the person performing an activity (say, a lab course) 9 is going to be a lot nearer the mark. Remember, this has to be done so that both deaf and blind students can use the material.
