New in Rise: More accessibility, the ability to copy lessons to other courses, and more

Hello, everyone!
We’re thrilled to announce several new features that’ll help you build more accessible courses and author more quickly in Rise. Here are the highlights:
- Keyboard-accessible navigation: Learners can now navigate Rise courses entirely with their keyboards. And because keyboard accessibility is built right into the published output, you don’t need to do a thing to make it happen. (Coming soon.)
- Higher contrast for accessibility: Built-in course features, such as buttons and icons, have a higher contrast between foreground and background colors, so they’re easier to read.
- Copy lessons to other courses: Reuse existing content and create courses faster by copying lessons across your Rise courses.
- Custom fonts. Personalize your Rise courses with custom fonts for heading and body text.
- Multiple-response questions: Make sure learners understand course content with the new multiple-response quiz lesson. You can create assessments with more than one correct answer.
- Fill-in-the-blank questions: Challenge learners to recall key words or phrases from your course content with the fill-in-the-blank quiz lesson.
- Matching questions: With the new drag-and-drop matching quiz lesson, you can make an interactive assessment that includes up to 10 text-based matching pairs. (Coming soon.)
Check out our What’s New page to learn more about these features, and what’s new in Storyline 360 and Content Library.

Hi Jon. It does look like the Storyline 360 block can be keyboard accessible in Rise 360. Here's a support article that talks more about keyboard accessible navigation in Rise 360. I hope this helps you out!
Hi Trina
Yes, the Storyline block is accessible with a keyboard, but only after it has been clicked on with a mouse. If you check out my link, you will see what I mean.

Hi Trina,
Checking in to see if Rise drag and drop quiz questions can be prepared in a way that they are section 508 compliant yet?
Thanks,
Sara
Hi Sara!
Thanks for reaching out!
No updates to this yet, but we’re planning on adding accessibility support for the Drag and Drop interaction. Please see our other planned accessibility improvements here!
