Broadcast captioning, also referred to as closed captioning, refers to the instant translation of the spoken word that is encoded into a television signal or viewed on a large screen or monitor at a meeting or convention.
Broadcast captioning is a critical link to news and entertainment programming, as well as emergency alerts for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. Studies have shown that captions can be a successful learning device for children and adults seeking to improve their reading and language-learning skills. In addition, professionals in the educational arena are using captioned television in the classroom as an educational tool.
