Before showing the short but quirky captioned online video the class will be engaged through vocabulary introduction and questions to establish prior knowledge. Using online map tools, the class will move on to locating various sites using longitude and latitude, from large cities to their own school.

In June 2015, we launched our annual CAP THAT! campaign with a simple message: turn the captions on when watching video content in class. This year we focused on the significance of using captions to benefit even more students, including students with English as an Additional Language, those who have reading difficulties, children on the autism spectrum, as well as students who are Deaf or hearing impaired. Amongst Australian schools nationwide, this equates to over one million kids in total.
