Abstract
This study was designed to shed light on the educational value of both closed captioning and interactive transcripts in lecture-based online courses at USFSP. We explored the effectiveness of closed captioning and interactive transcripts with a correlation study that examined the relationships between captioning, interactive transcripts, student demographics, student behaviors, and student comprehension of course material in an applied context. Research Questions 1. How do students use captions and transcripts to support their learning? 2. Do students who use captions and transcripts at a higher level learn more than those who use the tools at a lower level? This question addresses the overall amount that participants learned. 3. Do students who use captions and transcripts at a higher level comprehend the content better than those who use the tools at a lower level? This question addresses the depth of learning along three distinct levels: (1) retention/recall, (2) understanding/comprehension, and (3) transfer/application. Results will be shared.
