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!

    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!
