e-learning and Speech Recognition
e-learning (on-line, virtual, computer-based, distance learning, etc ) presents many accessibility and usability challenges that could be addressed by Speech Recognition.
Accessible Video Podcast
- Click "Message vidéo Keith Bain, Canada"
- Requires Windows Media Player
The following examples show how typical e-learning content, such
as audio only podcasts, basic slides, and simple html text documents, can be enhanced by Speech Recognition. In each example, Speech Recognition not only generated a text transcript, it also automatically synchronized the content into a more universally designed form. Requires Internet Explorer.
Accessible MP3 Podcast - SR aligns automatically generated text with the original audio
Accessible Slides - SR takes an ordinary slide deck and adds important "speaker notes" by capturing the actual instructor's voice as he/she presents the information
Text to Speech - Speech technologies augment a plain text document with synthesized audio
