+Copies of some lessons on these channels are available as part of this dataset in mp4 and wav formats.
+A select number of lessons have matching ELAN files with human and human/machine generated orthographic transcriptions of the audio, as well 'tiers' with machine inference only. 
+Detailed information about the audio quality, remarks on background noise, code-switching behaviour and lesson content is available in the paper above.
+
+Almost all videos contain a mix of languages, with some dominated by Indonesian or English.
+Some videos explicitly focused on variation in Indonesian or words from other languages which are commonly mixed into Indonesian by speakers.
