Hi Nathan,
We’ve been working hard on the accessibility features in Rise. And our ultimate goal is to be Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) compliant.
We’ve built Rise to follow Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA) standards for common navigation features, such as buttons, links, and forms. For custom features that aren’t covered by ARIA, such as interactive markers and sorting activities, we’ve focused on making the custom keyboard navigation feel natural and intuitive.
We do not yet provide full keyboard navigation support for learners who require a screen reader, but we are actively working on this.
As part of our plan to get to be WCAG compliant, we’re also hiring a 3rd party consultant to do a full audit. We’ll then produce a WCAG compliance document.
We appreciate your patience as we continue to work to meet the needs of all your learners and will continue to update you as we make progress in this area.
Hi Ashley, has there been any further progress on this since your last post?
