Today I wanted to share a little information about the videos that come with my Revit textbooks.
First of all, most of my Revit books come with videos... quite a few, actually (see the lists below). They can be downloaded, from the SDC Publications portal, by the student using their unique access code found on the inside-front cover of the book.
Second, they are all available in an accessible format for those with hearing impairments, which is a requirement of many educational institutions.
Keep reading to learn more...
It is worth pointing out that all SDC Publication videos are equally accessible. They decided to standardize this by adding the captioning themselves. What I personally like about this is the text is added below the video so as not to obscure anything in the video (as shown in the example image above).
I have two sets of Revit videos. One comes with most of my Revit books (the first list below) and the other is specific for my residential Revit book (second list below).
For a complete list of my books click here.
Professors and instructors in North America are able to request a free examination copy from SDC Publications.
