SpokenMedia: Automatic Lecture Transcription and Rich Media Notebooks

Tuesday, March 09, 2010 | 12:30PM–1:20PM | Room 551
Session Type: Professional Development
Need to find a specific segment in an hour-long web video, webcast, or podcast of a lecture? Want to read a transcript of that lecture? Want to bookmark, annotate, or discuss video or audio clips from an entire lecture? The SpokenMedia project at MIT is developing a web-based service to enable automatic lecture transcription. The project is also developing a suite of tools and services to improve interaction with webcasts and podcasts, enabling faculty and students to create rich media notebooks to support their teaching and learning.
