Hello - my Rise360 course needs to be fully accessible. Are there any block types (Drag and drops like Sorting or Matching?) that I should avoid or completely omit in order to achieve this? In other programs like H5P I needed to avoid certain block types, so I wanted to doublecheck.
First, I love to hear that you're authoring courses with accessibility in mind! As you consider which block types to use, we recommend avoiding sorting activities, flashcards, and matching drag-and-drop questions. Those block types don't work well with screen readers and/or keyboard navigation right now. Also, Scenario blocks don’t currently support alt text.
Aside from that, all of the other block types can be accessed using a screen reader and keyboard navigation. Be sure to check out these articles for more information on designing an accessible course in Rise 360!

Hi Leah,
Based entirely on what is stated on the Rise Roadmap https://articulate.com/support/article/Articulate-360-Feature-Roadmap#rise-360 these block types are not yet fully accessible:
