Evaluating Videos in D2L for Audio Description
Posted on September 14, 2026
Federal Title II accessibility regulations require prerecorded videos to include audio descriptions when essential visual information is not communicated through narration.
All videos made available to students in D2L must be evaluated by the course instructor, regardless of where they are hosted or who created them. This includes Kaltura, YouTube, publisher-provided, embedded, uploaded, and externally linked videos.
- Not every video needs additional audio description. If essential visual information is already communicated through narration, no additional description is needed.
- Action is needed when important visual information is shown but not spoken. Use the Evaluate Existing Videos in D2L checklist and review the next steps for Kaltura, Publisher, and YouTube videos.
Not sure where to start? Complete the self-paced Audio Description for Accessible Video Training for guidance, examples, checklists, and resources.
