Accessible quiz slide queries
Hi Heroes,
I have been trying to study and research accessibility so I can help my team improve our future courses. I have undertaken lots of good training, however one thing I am stuck on is...
Hi Jose,
Thank you very much for taking the time to reply to my query. I have read the article you linked, which is really useful for other things, but it does not tell me anything about best practice for quiz slides audio, and whether to add the audio to the base layer or to trigger audio for each individual option on the layers. Which would you recommend?
Thank you for making the recording, I can see that I have the same behaviour as you - that is - when the option a) is in focus it does not change to the selected state until I use the arrow keys to go through the other options and then go back to option a).
Hi Janet,
As long as your audio files don't auto-play, you can select if you want to place them in the base layer or additional layers. The project file you shared has audio files that automatically play when the timeline starts, so you may want to change this behavior to trigger-based events.
Regarding the tab behavior, would you mind tabbing through option A and pressing the space bar? This will allow you to set the state of the option to Selected without having to tab away.

Hi Jose,
Thank you for your reply. I think I have a lot to learn about accessibility. I will do as you suggest and make sure the audio does not autoplay by adding a toggle switch to the slide to mute the audio. I have tried the space bar to select the item and this does work.Many thanks,
Janet Record.You are most welcome and let me know if you need anything else!
