OnlineDegree.com Is Finally Open
(09-17-2018, 07:15 PM)Merlin Wrote: I know that I personally learn much easier and faster via reading than I do from watching or listening to videos, and I know there are many others who do as well. I would love to see a way to bypass the video lessons and just read a transcript, or read a written supplement that goes over the same material. I imagine this must be a big problem for people who are hard of hearing or deaf as well.

I know that a lot of their material comes from The Great Courses. The physical version of their DVD's usually comes with a printed book that covers the material, so I believe the textual information is available, at least for those courses. It would be nice to see that added as an option to supplement or replace the video lessons.

I prefer reading as well, in many cases. I have also have a disability.

I wanted to use a printed book for a TGC course, but the content is not the same as the video. The book is nicely done with a good deal of information, but I would not find quiz answers in there.

For The Great Courses, under the "...", there is an option to view the transcript on Kanopy. For UCI, copy and paste (or Google) the main UCI site and navigate to the proper course lectures. They are loading from YouTube. For both, the transcript can be viewed in a separate page of the page or viewed as subtitles. 

OD should at least provide detailed instructions on how to access the transcripts. However, I found that some of the transcripts are missing for UCI videos, making it frustrating for me.

Besides the accessibility issue, I like OD. I'm really thankful for their Python course.
