Outsource Educational Transcription Services

Universities and educational institutions worldwide, rely on audio and video to provide lectures and notes. Audio and video tools have made it easy for students to become better learners. Educational transcription involves converting these audio and video materials into a text format which helps students by providing an additional method to review classroom lectures. Also sometimes referred to as lecture transcription services, it also helps lecturers to review their classroom sessions through these useful transcripts.

One of the important applications of educational and academic transcription is to aid students who are deaf / hard at hearing. Hard at hearing students find it impossible to follow lectures that involve audio recordings. Textual transcripts of the lectures serve as an easy method for them to refer to notes and lectures.

How does the Transcription Process work?

1. The first step in the process involves capturing recorded lectures of notes and other study material. The better the quality of the recording, the faster will be the turnaround of the transcript
2. The recorded dictation is then transferred to a secure server in the university or directly transferred to the transcriptionist. This allows for constant access to the servers, allowing for the work to progress quickly
3. The transcribers are assigned a particular module of work to be converted through a centralized allocation system which distributes the work evenly. The transcriber listens and captures to the dictation using tools such as a foot pedal (to play, pause and rewind the recordings), high quality headphones, computers and word processors
4. The next crucial step involves a stringent quality check and re-editing in case of errors. This is again reviewed and submitted for editing if any errors are found. The finished documents are uploaded to a secure server or sent by email
