Topic: Preparing for Observing
Now that we're headed into spring and clouds should start clearing (maybe...sometimes...), it's always nice to go through things to consider when putting together an observing kit. We'll discuss what kinds of items to bring with you and how to prepare for observing sessions. Bring your thoughts and questions!
RCA members who benefit from captioning during meetings suggest the following options for transcription services during online meetings.
For someone using a computer - Web Captioner
For someone using an android phone - Live Transcribe
For someone using an iPhone - Ava
The phone apps can be used while attending an online program on a computer by putting the phone near the computer's speaker. Or to see captions on the computer screen, open Web Captioner in a separate browser window, click "Start Captioning" then adjust the size of the browser windows so that the Web Captioner window sits below the Zoom meeting.
We are open to any further suggestions for both online and in person.
