17/11/2009 - WGBH/NCAM and Apple Publish "Creating Accessible iTunes U Content"
The National Center for Accessible Media at WGBH (NCAM) has written guidelines for content providers who would like to create accessible iTunes U media via captions, subtitles and audio descriptions. This guidelines document provides step-by-step documentation on creating fully accessible media, including: - Closed captions and audio descriptions that the user can turn on or off as needed. - Open subtitles and descriptions that are available to everyone watching or listening. - Closed subtitles for adding multiple language tracks to video files. - Accessible PDFs. Also included with the guidelines are links to eight video and audio clips that illustrate the various forms of accessible media discussed in the document. Using these guidelines, iTunes U content providers can create content that all people can learn from including people with vision and hearing loss.
