We recently had an incident where a scientific term was not accurately recognized in the captioning. The result was a derogatory term in the text. Can anyone offer tips to get the most accurate captions?

Hello, I am new to Brightspace and D2L. I work in British Columbia Canada in an online High School. I have a student who would benefit greatly from a text-to-talk program for Life Sciences 11 (Biology 11). Does the D2L/Brightspace package automatically come with text-to-talk abilities or does the student have to download…
As it stands now, when the teacher adds a video note they can click on allow captions, but when the student watches/listens to the video note they have to click on the cog and select captions. Can it be set up in the organisation that captions are on as a default always?
