- 6. Handouts—Best Practices Using Heading Tags Your handout should be structured using a hierarchy. Title for page and handout titles Heading 1 for major sections Normal for content Heading 2 and Heading 3 for subsections
- 7. Handouts—Best Practices Word provides an easy way to set up a document by using the Styles feature in the top tool bar. When you use Word Styles, the heading structure will remain intact if you save as a web page or convert to a PDF document
- 8. Handouts—Best Practices It is important to use readable fonts. Different computers will have different font options, but here are a few common readable fonts: Arial, Tahoma, Veranda, Calibri This sentence is written in Calibri This sentence is written in Ariel This sentence is written in Tahoma This sentence is written in Veranda
- 9. Handouts—Best Practices Real Text vs. Text within Graphics: You should use real text instead of text within graphics. This is an example of real text
- 10. Handouts—Best Practices If use color, don’t rely on color to convey the meaning alone. Example: Color vs. Black and White While color helps identify the lines: Yellow line, Red Line, Blue Line, etc… the colors can’t convey meaning alone.

- 14. Videos—Best Practices Goals of Captioning Captioning should provide synchronized, equal, and accessible content. Captions should be accurate, consistent, clear, and readable.
- 15. Videos—Best Practices Start with a Script It is easier to caption education videos if you start with a script. It will save you time in the captioning process and will make it easier to create a handout or post a transcript.
- 16. Videos—Best Practices A readable sans serif font should be used. Common sans serif fonts are: Arial, Tahoma, and Veranda This is Veranda – A sans serif font This is Times New Roman – A serif font
- 17. Videos—Best Practices Caption Placement Most captions are placed at the bottom of the screen provided they don’t interfere with existing graphs, charts, or other elements.
- 18. Videos—Best Practices Music Music should be captioned in brackets with music icons. If there are lyrics, capture the lyrics word-for-word and introduce artist and song if possible.
- 19. Videos—Best Practices Sound Effects Sound effects should be captioned if it is needed to understand and/or enjoy the video. Put description of sound effects in brackets and include onomatopoeia if possible.
- 20. Videos—Best Practices Transcripts and Handouts – Provide a transcript for all videos. You may post uncaptioned and captioned videos to give students choices. Example: Virtual Library Tour Virtual Library Tour --PDF Handout
