Can I translate my courses into a different Language?
There are a couple different options you have for translating your students content:
Translating the Platform:
- Open your 21stCentEd account on any page
- Scroll down to the very bottom of the page
- Click on the arrow next to "English"
- Choose the language you wish to translate to
- This will translate all of the background content of the platform, not the course itself
Translating course content for K-8th grade:
- Open up the course you wish to translate and choose a page of content
- Click on the "Immersive Reader" found at the top of the page
- If the immersive reader button is not showing up on the page please contact our tech team to have the feature enabled for your course
- Click on the book icon in the top right corner and choose one of our 75 languages
- Translate by word by clicking on the word you would like translated OR change the setting to translate by document
- Most languages also have the ability to be read aloud by clicking on the Play button found at the bottom of the screen
- You will notice the immersive reader has many other features such as definitions, parts of speech, line focus, text options, etc.
*Note: Course content found within the slides portion do not have the ability to be translated at this time
Translating course content for 9th-12th grade:
- Open your course and navigate to the page of content you are looking for
- Highlight any text you would like translated
- Click on the arrow in the small box that appears at the top of the content
- Click on the translation button (the default is spanish) and a popup will appear with the translated text
- You can use the play button to have the text read aloud
- If you need to switch languages, click on the settings button and pick the new language
- You will notice this menu has many other features such as definitions, parts of speech, line focus, text options, etc.
*Note: You can also use this method to translate the videos by opening the video transcript below each video and then translating the text from there.
