[Athen] ASL and Zoom

[Melanie P. Thornton]

The main consideration is that the student AND the interpreter will need very good bandwidth to ensure there is not a lot of freezing up happening during the lecture. While someone watching a lecture may not even notice a few stops and starts, when that occurs with an ASL interpreter, the message is totally lost.

An interpreter should be able to log in to Zoom just like any other participant. Students who need to see the interpreter can "pin" the interpreter's video so that it's in the main window at all times.

Hi All,
We have a student who’s primary accommodation is ASL.
Now that classes are being moved online, some faculty are opting for Zoom synchronous vs. recorded asynchronous.
Is there a way to provide ASL with Zoom?  We already have interpreters on contract who are familiar with the course content,
so I was hoping to not need to go with a new  VRS/VRI service.

Prefer an ALS option to Remote CART.
Thanks for your help!
