Use Case: The user watches Skillshare lessons on the desktop and wants to switch on the subtitles in full screen mode.

Problem: When the user presses the “Subtitles” button, they cannot press anything in the dropdown menu as it closes before the user clicks on it. Users can’t switch on or switch off the subtitles and change their language from full screen mode.

Best Practice: On Coursera, users can adjust subtitle settings at any time, even while in full-screen mode, without encountering any technical issues. This UX feature enhances accessibility and user convenience by allowing seamless customization of subtitle options, such as language and text size, directly during the learning experience. This is particularly beneficial for non-native speakers, ensuring that they can tailor content delivery to their specific needs without interrupting their focus or learning flow.
