Accessibility workarounds for Storyline 360 Drag & Drop Exercises

Описание: How to create accessible drag and drop exercises in e-learning modules? I'm going to show you some workarounds I tried that worked. This tutorial focuses on WCAG / 508 compliance and screen reader friendliness in Storyline 360.

This is more focused on the instructional design of the exercise, rather than on the technical solutions available to make drag and drop exercises accessible.

✅ Key topics covered:

🔎 Evaluating the importance of exercise format vs. learning objectives
🔎 Using the pasteboard for hidden accessible content
🔎 Modifying focus order for better accessibility
🔎 Creating invisible "Next" buttons for screen readers
🔎 Transforming drag and drops into multiple-choice questions

Whether you're updating old modules or creating new content, these techniques ensure your e-learning is inclusive and accessible to all learners, including those with visual impairments.

Tested with the NVDA screen reader.
