I am creating a course in multiple languages and there will be several open-ended text fields for user input. Is there anything I need to do to set up those text fields so the users can enter text in their native languages (not all languages will use English characters.)
Let me clarify my question. If I am creating a course for someone to take in Chinese, is there anything special I need to do so that the user can enter Chinese characters in the text field?
Hi, Lou -- I appreciate the clarification, and you know, that is a question I can't say I have encountered previously, so I am reaching out to a few of my colleagues for their input. In the meantime, do you happen to have a file you can share? Please upload here or if privacy is a concern, you are welcome to use this form to submit for confidential review.
And, may I ask if you have gone ahead tried to enter Chinese characters in a text entry box during testing if you that was the language you selected from various language options at the start of the course? I would imagine as long as the learner has the language they need to use installed on their machine, it should work, but I will need to confirm.
Hello again, Lou -- You can disregard my request for your file, as 2 of my colleagues performed some testing and your learners should be able to enter text in the language they have selected.
