Accessibility checker specifically for Storyline/eLearning courses
Hello everyone,
I have some great news to share! We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 100, we have included essential fixes and new features. One of the new features we’ve included is:
- Improve the accessibility of your content. Get actionable feedback based on key WCAG guidelines to instantly identify barriers like missing closed captions and disabled course playback speed.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You’ll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help.
If you’re wondering what happens when you submit a feature request, here’s our process:
Feature requests start with our customer support team. First, we check if there’s already a way to do what you’re asking. If there is, we’ll let you know. If not, we go to step 2.
We consider the value this potential new feature would offer to our customers. We ask ourselves:
-
-
- Will this feature meaningfully improve the experience of working with our software?
- Will it benefit a majority of users?
-
If we feel like the answer is “yes!”, we bring the request to our product development team.
Our development team evaluates feature requests alongside their queue of bug fixes, new features already on the roadmap, and other projects. If a new feature makes it onto the roadmap, our team designs, develops, and tests it. And when it’s ready, we share the good news!
These are great criteria for new features! I think an accessibility checker fits the bill perfectly. The meaningful improvement to our experience as developers, not to mention how this helps us make better content for our clients/constituents. *chef's kiss*
