What if the Transcipt has errors?

If you spot any errors in the transcript these are normal, and often do not affect the meaning of your understanding. YuJa might pick up errors due to speakers’ accents and subject wording which is unfamilar to the software.

These errors can sometimes be detrimental to your understanding of the lecture, espeically if words are technical to the subject – such as key ideas, names of elements or company names you may be tested on.

If you find any errors such as this, please speak to your lecturer or module convenor and they will be able to edit any specific words or parts of the transcript which will aid your learning of the subject.

If there is no transcript please let your lecturer or module convenor know. Please point them towards our YuJa Accessibility Guide.
