In the current era of lockdown due to Covid-19, all educational institutions are working remotely along with the markets and other tourist places as well. Since students were studying from home, there was no student-teacher interaction.
Most people want to share their knowledge and passion for the subject matter in which they master. It is the goal of every teacher to make sure that each student understands the material and fulfills his expectations. To make things easier for the students, lecture transcripts are the simplest way to use technology to support different lifestyles.
As an educator, you may want to develop your teaching skills. But it may not be that easy to accomplish these goals. Moreover, you may encounter international students who learn best in a non-native language, people with learning styles different from your learning style, and deaf or hard-of-hearing people who require additional support in the classroom.
The right use of technology can inhibit all these challenges, improve your teaching style and ensure that each student is getting the most out of the lectures. Transcription plays the most useful role here. Let’s explore this role even more!
What Is a Lecture Transcript?
Lecture transcripts are not very common, therefore not many people are familiar with them. The most common definition of lecture transcription is ‘the transcription of lectures, seminars, or presentations by professors, researchers, lecturers, teachers et. al. in classrooms and lecture halls of universities and colleges.
According to some studies, written transcripts and oral lectures are equally effective forms of information transmission when objective examinations measure retention.
