Are Storyline's fill-in-the-blank questions accessible?
Good afternoon Emily,
My name is Julia and I will be assisting you with this question. I did some digging and I think a great option would be to use the survey option in storyline.
In storyline 360, you can check on the Slides tab and it will show a button for Survey Questions
Just remember that you need a Results Slide which you can also create which can find on the same tab beside the Survey Questions button and use Survey Results.
Thanks for your reply, Julia. I am confused why I would use the survey option instead of the fill-in-the-blank? Is the survey slide more accessible for some reason?
Hello Emily!
I wanted to jump in and share that using a Fill-in-the-blank is accessible. A few small tips that come to mind is making sure there is a button for the learner to submit their answer rather than relying on when the text entry field loses focus. Also, make sure to include alt text that explains the intent of the text entry field. For example, "Enter your name."
Please let us know if you have any additional questions!
Thank you so much, Lauren!
Hi Lauren,
Can you tell me specifically how fill-in-the-blank questions are accessible in Articulate Storyline 360? I see that everyone states that it is accessible, but I am wondering how. I'm trying to match up a WCAG success criterion to it. I would imagine it could be WCAG 2.4.7 Focus Visible. If I am incorrect, please let me know! Thanks for the info!
