Lesson 5 of 5 · Video

Make videos playable and understandable

What it is

Use modern embeds (YouTube or HTML5 video) with play controls. Add captions and a transcript or summary on the page.

Why it matters

Captions help viewers with sound off and deaf visitors; transcripts give search engines text to understand.

✓ Good example

A 'how we install' video with captions and a written summary below.

✗ Common mistake

An autoplaying video with no controls and no text.

You pass when: Videos have controls, captions and on-page text.
