Important Reminders

Any text added in the H5P Question text form field by content authors is part of the information announced by screen reading software.  However, H5P allows content authors to include content and formatting that screen reading software is not able to announce as part of the accessible label for the question.  H5P does not provide an option to include a separate question label (such as a correctly structured heading) or separate instructions for questions.

Use best practices for content authoring, including:

  • Begin the activity content with a correctly structured heading
  • Add instructions for questions on the page outside of the H5P content
  • Provide users with instructions that describe the Show solution and Retry button icons for users who require magnification.  

Users of screen reading software may need to be provided with an alternative activity to be able to review correct and incorrect answers.

Visible Indication of Focus

The activity buttons and interactive elements have a visible indication of focus.

Color Contrast

The visible indication of focus has good contrast.  The color contrast of meaningful visual elements and text with backgrounds must be ensured manually by the content author.

Keyboard Usability

The activity is usable with the keyboard.

No Keyboard Traps

There are no keyboard traps.

Magnification

The activity supports both magnification up to 200% and reflow of content with magnification up to 400% without a loss of content or functionality and without requiring horizontal scrolling.  The Retry button text is not visible at 200%, the Show solution and Retry button text is not visible at 200% or 400%, and the tooltips for the buttons do not magnify, but the icons do.

Usability with Screen Reading Software

The activity is not usable with screen reading software.  The correct and incorrect answers cannot be announced by screen reading software.
