This tool could be highly beneficial for educators working with students with special educational needs (SEN) in the classroom. According to Delaney (2016), assistive technology can support a range of SEN, including cognitive and learning difficulties, behavioral challenges, and social or emotional needs. Additionally, it can assist students with physical challenges such as visual or hearing impairments.
For students with hearing impairments, the captions this tool generates would be like a speech-to-text feature which referes to transcribing audio into written text. This allow SEN sts to read what is being spoken. Besides, learners with visual impairments can adjust the font and text size displayed on the device, which could significantly aid their reading experience, as noted by Hockly (2017). SEN students who struggle with reading can benefit from the audio of the video thanks to the text-to-speech feature, which convert written text into spoken words.
The tool can also be advantageous in inclusive classrooms, helping students better understand nonverbal communication and fostering a more inclusive learning environment.
