Live Lesson Translation

How to use PowerPoint’s live transcription/translation features to increase accessibility for ML students.

⁠

TWBAT: comfortably navigate to PowerPoint, start a live presentation, share the link, and instruct students how to watch transcription in preferred language

Structure:

Share tutorial video with all staff prior to training

Conduct training with PLCs (or other small groups) to reinforce video and support implementation in a small-group setting

Part 1 - Share tutorial video prior to training

⁠

Part 2 - In-Person Training

⁠

Objective: Support teachers in small-group setting as they practice the skills they learned in the video tutorial

Directions

Go to

office.com⁠

and log in

Create or open a PowerPoint slideshow (use the web app, not the desktop app). Slideshow can be the “real” slideshow that you use to lead your lesson, or just a blank slide.

Go to Slideshow > Present Live (dropdown arrow) > Anyone

Go to Slideshow > Present Live

Click the Copy icon to copy the live meeting link

Paste the link on your Canvas page, a live document the students can access, or share the link via Dyknow.

Resume session and click Show Slides

Instruct students to choose their language by clicking the language icon in the bottom corner

Notes

Teachers should watch the tutorial video prior to training

Teachers should maintain a close distance to their computer, so they are in range of their microphone

Machine translation is more effective when translating active voice, not passive voice.
