To support faculty in enhancing accessibility in remote teaching, Microsoft 365 PowerPoint provides a “Live Subtitles and Translation” feature.
When giving a presentation, PowerPoint can automatically generate live subtitles from speech. Teachers may also choose to translate subtitles into other languages, making it easier for students from different language backgrounds or students with hearing needs to follow the lecture in real time.
📍 Synchronous courses – Subtitles can be displayed instantly during live classes, helping students understand the course content in real time. If cross-language communication is required, translation can also be enabled for multilingual participation.
📍 Asynchronous courses – Subtitles or translations can be added after recording, improving accessibility and readability of course materials.
Speech-to-text subtitles: Spoken content is automatically converted into subtitles for students to read in real time.
Language translation support: Subtitles can be shown in the original language or translated into other languages to support multilingual communication.
Subtitle placement adjustment: Teachers can set subtitles to appear at the top or bottom of the slide, based on teaching needs.

Use in a stable internet environment to ensure smooth and real-time subtitle display.
