Enable Audio and Video Captions on Any Page in Chrome

Applications for Education.
This is an excellent upgrade for students and teaches two factors. From an accessibility standpoint Chromes new captioning service makes more content accessible to more trainees than ever. Second, on those days when a trainee forgets his/her headphones and you prepare to have trainees enjoy videos or listen to audio, they can still get the info without needing to play the audio aloud..

You can enable audio and video captioning in ease of access settings of the innovative area of Chrome settings. You can access the availability settings by going into chrome:// settings/accessibility in the Chrome URL field or by opening the little “three dot” menu in the upper-right corner of Chrome and then choosing “settings.” In this short video I offer a demonstration of how to enable captions in Chrome and how captions appear on a page..

This week Google rolled-out
In the newest variation there is now support for automatic captioning of audio and video on any web page that you visit in the Chrome web browser. The captions will work whether or not the audio is played aloud.
