External Accessibility Testing Tools for Non-Traditional Websites
Our team is using Storyline's built-in accessibility checker to enhance the accessibility of our courses. To further ensure our content is accessible, we're looking for recommendations on external programs that have proven effective for testing accessibility on non-traditional websites.Accessible text in Storyline
Hi everyone, Following the instructions on the Articulate page about accessble text (I can't manage to share the link), I have upgraded my project text and abbled the accessible text option. Still following this page, I tried to use HerlperBird add-on to see the result. For now, I could only have it worked on SCORMcloud using Google Chrome. With Edge: only the player adapt depending on Helperbird caracteristics and on Firefox, as soon as I click next or previous, the text go back to normal. And, when importing my SCORM in my Moodle LMS, no matter what broser I use. I have reached the Articulate support, exchanged several e-mails, videos and the source but that did not help me resolve or find an alternate solution. Did anyone met this problem? Does this work on other LMS? Do you have other accessibility extension advice? Thanks for your responses Marion PS: This dedicated forum is a great idea!Accessibility - Screen Readers and TTS
Hi, I'm currently completing an apprenticeship in Digital Learning Design, and I'm working through some content on accessibility. Previously, all our storyline courses had text-to-speech added on, but the accessibility features such as alt text and focus orders weren't used. Since I've learnt more about screen readers through my apprenticeship, I've been following correct processes and designs for best practice with screen readers. However, as these read out the text on screen, I'm wondering if the text-to-speech I manually add onto all slides is still required? Part of me thinks it might be too much if both the audio on the course and the screen reader are reading the content out loud, but then we might have learners with dyslexia, for example, who might not require a screen reader but still prefer to have the text read aloud. How does everyone else navigate this? Do you use both or one or the other? Thank you!
