Note
To enable Text Translation, reference Updating Text Translation for a student.
EdgeEX features over 130 languages for translation. When a student has translation enabled in their profile settings, they can change the language of most on-screen text, including the video transcript and captions (but not the text that appears in the video itself). In addition, EdgeEX features persistent translation (that is, the student does not need to click Translate page by page). Both caption translation and persistence are features unique to EdgeEX.
Languages available for translation are listed in the table below.
Spanish audio available in math, science, and social studies courses
All videos in EdgeEX math, science, and social studies courses have audio tracks available in Spanish. This feature helps Spanish-speaking students better engage with core content and succeed in their coursework while empowering educators to promote equitable access for mulitlingual learners.
When Spanish text translation is enabled, the videos automatically play in Spanish. For a demonstration and more information, review this video:
Note
Spanish audio is not offered for English, Spanish, and French courses. These courses involve explicit instruction in the literature and mechanics of the language itself, and translated audio is often confusing.
