<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;">Many people are tempted to download videos from YouTube to show them in classrooms where YouTube is blocked. According to YouTube's terms of use, you're not supposed to download unless you see a download link, in order to protect video creators’ rights, so you may not want to take this route.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;">The good news is that YouTube now offers Creative Commons-licensed videos, which are automatically safe to use. You can even modify or edit them into your own videos using the YouTube Video Editor. Enter specific keywords into YouTube’s main search bar as you normally would (“biology lectures,” for instance), then click on the “Filter & Explore” tab to the far left. In the middle of the drop-down list are the words “creative commons.” Click here and all the videos that appear under your search term will be Creative-Commons licensed. =** ============================================================================== **=

= Use automatic captioning (Youtube Help) = Automatic captions are available in English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. Captions are a great way to make content accessible for viewers. YouTube can use speech recognition technology to automatically create captions for your videos. These automatic captions are generated by machine learning algorithms, so the quality of the captions may vary.

Review, edit, or unpublish automatic captions
If automatic captions are available, they'll automatically be published on the video. Automatic captions may not be ready at the time that you upload a video. Processing time depends on the complexity of the video's audio. YouTube is constantly improving its speech recognition technology. However, automatic captions might misrepresent the spoken content due to mispronunciations, accents, dialects, or background noise. You should always review automatic captions and edit any parts that haven't been properly transcribed. Here's how you can review automatic captions and make changes, if needed: You can also [|enable the video for community contributions] and let your viewers caption and translate your content instead. == Troubleshoot automatic captions issues == If your video doesn't generate automatic captions, it could be due to one or more of the following reasons:
 * 1) Go to your Video Manager by clicking your account in the top right > **Creator Studio** > **Video Manager** > **Videos**.
 * 2) Next to the video you want to add captions or subtitles to, click the drop-down menu next to the **Edit** button.
 * 3) Select **Subtitles and CC**.
 * 4) If automatic captions are available, you'll see **Language (Automatic)** in the "Published" section to the right of the video.
 * 5) Review automatic captions and use the instructions to edit or remove any parts that haven't been properly transcribed.
 * The captions aren't available yet due to processing complex audio in the video.
 * The language in the video is not yet supported by automatic captions.
 * The video is too long.
 * The video has poor sound quality or contains speech that YouTube doesn't recognize.
 * There is a long period of silence at the beginning of the video.
