To all the teachers lighting up minds and making learning accessible for every student: We see you, and we appreciate you. Happy #WorldTeachersDay! ❤️

Does anyone have any amazing #Media resources for high school? #edu #blueskyedu

Did you see these awesome updates from #ISTELive?

Is anyone else using vibe coding? I've been using it to create Chrome extensions, which is a great place to use it. It's simple code, not many objects and it runs in a sandbox with a clear debugging process! Have you had success?

This was a user request, I'm pleased we found a way to make this possible!

Would anyone like a tool which can take a photo of your schedule and then turn it into calendar entries? #edtech

I was excited to be awarded the University of Portsmouth Alumni Impact Award last week, for my work with Zip Captions! #Award #Impact

Make sure that you have set your dialect to ensure that you are getting the most accurate results for your voice. If you have moved between counties, or you have an accent which is a mix of cultures, you might need to try a few different ones to get the most accurate results that you can!

We rely on our users spreading the word about Zip Captions and the power of captions. So if you have a moment, please share @zipcaptions.app and let the world know about the power of Live Captions!

AI is great until it isn't. With a lack of professional development and mixed results, people are beginning to give up on AI as it doesn't return the desired outcomes. How are you finding #AI? www.theregister.com/AMP/2025/03/...

In my opinion you should run, not walk away from teaching in the UK. Having worked in two education systems, teachers in the UK are underpaid, overworked, taken advantage of, and the curriculum is a hot mess. Then the BBC have the audacity to suggest this: www.bbc.com/news/article... #teaching #uk

Each year on March 3rd, the World Health Organization celebrates #WorldHearingDay. This year's theme is Changing Mindsets to Empower Yourself. Zip Captions allows people to do exactly this, to empower themselves! As a friend recently said, "it's bring your own accessibility".

Have you tried @clipchamp.bsky.social ? I'm seriously blown away by how good it is. I highly recommend giving it a go for your next video editing project. #edtech

We've just launched a ton of features, some of them huge improvements to our captioning flow. You can read our latest press release here: www.zipsolutions.org/pressrelease...

We're thrilled to announce that our Patrons are the first to have access to an additional recognition provider. A paid service, that uses the latest speech recognition technology to provide high quality, reliable captions to people who want them. Read more here: www.patreon.com/posts/122933...

Along with today's huge update adding AI based captions, we also added dialect support for everyone! This doesn't matter if you're a Patron, or just a regular user, you can now choose a dialect to help make captioning more accurate. You can find dialects in the settings. #a11y #accessibility

Ooof this shows some incredible AI bias. You'd think that companies like Apple would have done their due diligence here www.theverge.com/news/614004/... @kshelton.bsky.social & @deelanier.bsky.social talked about this in their book (it's an essential read)

Hi! It's been a while since we introduced ourselves and we thought that you'd like to know a little more about the people behind our team! If you like what we're doing, why don't you say hi below and let us know about how you're using Zip Captions. #A11y #Accessibility #UDL #Captions #Education

It's Black History Month as I'm sure everyone is aware, and hopefully you've had the opportunity to reflect on the past injustices, racism and biases towards Black people throughout recent history. But now, as we move forward, how do we prevent that? 1/3

Not going to lie, this is kind of frightening - "parents cannot opt out" - therover.ca/quebec-schoo... they're feeding student data to an AI to detect trends. @kshelton.bsky.social sound familiar? #AI #Bias

So @kshelton.bsky.social do you think you could feed and AI a transcript and ask it to identify your own biases? Is anything capable of this?

Here are my thoughts on AI replacing the teacher. Come and join in the conversation on LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/posts/chris-...! #AI #Education #EduSky

I've been playing more with #NotebookLM and today I used @zipcaptions.app to create a transcript of my #math lesson on the Cosine Law. At the end I asked it to create me a podcast (youtu.be/bZMen_2yy6E) as well as an FAQ document which I added some formatting to. Thoughts on this use of #AI in #Edu?

What happened when I fed a transcript of my lesson into #NitebookLM? Thoughts below please!

Going to #BETT? Attending a talk? Make sure that you're using @zipcaptions.app to capture your transcript to get some awesome notes at the end of the session that you can share those quotes without breaking focus on what's being said!

A3: Getting students involved in the discussion is hard, however, by using the accessibility tools in the classroom, questions usually start flowing! #EduSkyChat

Imagine you start your next class with a quiz generated from what you said in the previous one, or you produce a 5 minute podcast so that those who were absent from your class can catch up on what they missed... Watch how to combine @zipcaptions.app with #GenerativeAI. #Edu #EdTech #Bett #Google

Did you know that if your item isn't found in the Google Play Store, you can play instant games built right into the store? #HiddenGames #PlayStore #Google

Let's drive change! Contact your local theaters and ask for open captions for all showings. @cineplexmovies.bsky.social #OpenCaptionsForAll #Accessibility #MovieTheaters #Inclusion #Advocacy

No matter where you are, in your classroom or at a conference, in your office or an informal gathering, a place of worship or a keynote. Zip Captions has your back! Have you tried it out? zipcaptions.app

Today, The Nora Project released its Standards for Inclusive Schools! I am so proud to be a lead author and am excited for the impact these groundbreaking Standards will have on students and educators everywhere. Check them out and spread the word! #EduSky

Did you know that Zip Captions is available to install via the Microsoft Store? This means that it will run as a system app in Windows using Edge as it's voice to text service. Try it today at https://buff.ly/42cxHoU #accessibility #a11y #Windows #Microsoft

I LOVE ZIP CAPTIONS. Full stop.

I want to build a Education Accessibility Pack on Bluesky. Who can help me with suggestions? #Accessibility #Edu

A reminder to #GoogleET to submit your training sessions for 2024!

Have you used Zip Captions? If you are going ro #FETC- you should have it ready to try out in breakouts... it is FREE! #EdTech #EduSky

Having started a few projects related to #hearing #accessibility in the last couple of years, it still seems to be a very niche sector. How could we drive interest in the general population when it comes to improving access?

Can you help us out with a testimonial? A short sentence about your experience with Zip Captions? Please get in touch! Or if you've not tried Zip Captions try it today at zipcaptions.app #accessibility #a11y

First attempt at #HTV iron on transfer. A dollar store pencil case and my son has a custom pencil case. #Cricut @cricutexplore.bsky.social

My first attempt at #screenprinting thoughts? Opinions? I'm not totally sure about the quality

Google Forms has changed a bit. You can no longer just copy the responder link. You have to Publish first, otherwise no one can respond. #EduSky #GoogleEdu #EdTech

Sooooo... I'm embroiled in an argument with Montreal Airport, where they say that after 40 minutes you have to pay $24, as the free 40 minutes don't count if you exceed them... Is that what this says?

Yesterday Google launched a feature which they claim uses AI to bring captions to life. It will put emphasis onto certain words to highlight the tone or action that's happening in a conversation or video. What do you think about this? Could this be distracting? #accessibility

Did you know that you can float a window in #ChromeOS? This means that you can have a window in the foreground, and interact with one in the background without losing the foreground one... Ideal for timers, captions, notes and more! #GoogleEdu

We have a green screen room, one could say it's very green. Does anyone have tips for consistent lighting?
