HI Kim,
I'm sorry for not getting back to you sooner. If you are using only accessible Rise blocks there is a good chance that your course is compatible with screen reading software. I recommend ensuring that you are using headings to break up the content. This makes a long page of course content much easier to navigate. Also ensure that you are using alt text to describe any meaningful images or "" to hide decorative items. I am attaching a draft of a Rise checklist that might be useful.
Hi Auston, I have read the reports and information on Articulate about "accessibility". There's alot to absorb but it looks like I'm on the right track. Thanks for the ("") tip to hide decorative items, I will go back and do this! I will be adding video and some SL later so shall keep reading widely via Articulate. Grateful for the support!
No problem, Kim. Check out that Rise checklist too I attached in the previous post. Please let me know if you or anyone on the form has any feedback. I think you are on the right track to making sure your course is accessible.
