24. Learning Technology Services Inspiring Innovation. Learn more at www.uwstout.edu Having the captions on the recorded lecture was helpful “Without them I would have been lost.” “Made it easier to take notes.” “Having the subtitles helps a lot so I could pause the video and write down things said in the video that I did not catch. “ “I like having the combination of narration and text; I think I relied on the text most of all.” “If I needed to pause the video to understand a concept, I could still read and write down what was being said in the audio. “ “I was able to realize what the word was and on spelling for words I didn't understand.”

Seemed like I was getting face-time with professor even though it was an online class “The best thing was being able to pause or go back. In a normal lecture, you cannot do that. “ “I couldn't ask questions right away, I had to wait until class if I didn't understand material.” “Since we didn't have a face-to-face lecture, I found myself procrastinating and putting off watching the lecture videos until a later date. “
