Math equations in RISE
What are your recommendations for creating accessible math equations in RISE content? We need these to be accessible to students using screenreaders. Can we input MathJax/ML etc into RISE? Or is the only option to add each equation as an image with alt text description or maybe create a Word document with these equations, both of which are very time consuming. Please advise as we'd like to continue building in RISE, but need to ensure that these are accessible for users.

Also hugely needed in the courses I set up

Has anyone tried to modify the scorm output of a rise course to add the following snipped provided by mathjax (https://www.mathjax.org/#gettingstarted) ?
I'm looking at the structure of the file but I have no idea where to paste this. I understand it's better to not modify these files but this seems like a solution that could work while Articulate is working on a proper solution.

<script id="MathJax-script" async src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/mathjax@3/es5/tex-mml-chtml.js"></script> I'm sorry I don't have any updates for you, Rachel! We'll let you know if we get new information that would be helpful.

Yes! We need this too!!
What are the workarounds people are using while we wait?

Please add math editing tools!

Hi Christopher,
This is an interesting solution but it's utmost hard to maintain a course if your equations are in a different location than your course.
It would work for occasionally displaying graphs but it wouldn't work for a full course on a scientific topic where you need to display online equations and formulas.
Can someone try to add a desmos graph to a rise course for me ? I don't have access to the solution right now.

We also need accessible math equation editor in Rise and Storyline.

Are there any actual plans for a LaTex style editor to ever be part of Rise?

Adding the same request: We'd love a math equation editor feature in Rise!
Hi Alexa!
Thanks for sharing the feedback on the type of functionality you'd like to see in Rise 360!
I've included you in the feature report and will update this discussion if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.
Have a great week!
