Hi there,
I have managed to incorporate a no. of accessibility guidelines into my storyline block. However, when I use the 'Read aloud' function built into my Edge browser, it cannot read the con...
Thanks Luciana.
If I embed a Storyline block as an introductory video, is this still accessible? How can I test a storyline block for accessibility?
I am undertaking the following checks.
- Colour contrast check
- Size of font
- Alt text to images (mine don't add any context hence I have removed them from the focus order)
I have also added the following features to make my content accessible.
- Transcript (there is no audio as I am not keen to add the Text-to-speech voices or my voice and have no access to a voice actor at the moment/good recording software or a studio.)
- Closed captions and notes
- Accessibility shortcuts in a Word document linked within a Tab
I have tried to use Web Aim but Articulate doesn't give access.
Am I missing anything?
Hello Mary Ann,
You can test the accessibility of an embedded Storyline 360 block in a Rise 360 course the same way you would test if it were a standalone Storyline 360 course.
If the Storyline interaction itself is accessible, it will still be accessible as a block in Rise 360. Additionally, you can check out this article on how to design accessible Rise 360 courses:
Hope this helps!
