Currently active faculty, staff, and students have access to paid features with their Michigan Tech Zoom account. Upon leaving the university, your account will switch to a
basic plan.
Zoom now features an optional live transcript feature in all Michigan Tech accounts. This feature improves accessibility by using speech to text technology to generate and display a real-time audio transcript during a meeting. Meeting hosts also have the option to allow live transcripts to be saved by meeting attendees by enabling this option in their advanced meeting settings. Using live transcripts is a best practice, but they are not fully accurate and should not be considered as a substitute for manually generated captions that may be required for students or colleagues with a formal accommodation.
How to enable live transcripts
- With your Zoom meeting open, select the Live Transcript button in the Zoom toolbar.
- Under Live Transcript, select the Enable Auto-Transcription button.
