Access is part
of the learning design.

On this website

• Navigation: Native links, buttons and headings; skip links; visible keyboard focus; and larger targets on primary controls.
• Reading: Informative image descriptions, labels beyond color, contrasting text and responsive HTML for the Northline reference.
• Motion: The top “Make things still” button remembers a visitor’s choice for decorative motion. System reduced-motion settings take precedence. Small Worlds opens only when selected, with a short, non-looping entrance; its content appears immediately with reduced motion or the still setting. There is no forced scrolling. Classroom samples retain their own optional motion controls.
• Browsing: Courses, software practice, scenarios and games, and job aids and guides have direct native links. All nine projects remain visible if category filtering JavaScript is unavailable. The optional Small Worlds group uses native disclosure and repeats three links available in the main browse.
• Resource previews: An explicit Close button, native Escape handling and previous/next controls. Direct image links remain available if the preview cannot open.

The website review covers source structure, local links, text contrast and interaction logic. Resource previews have a scrollable container and a sticky Close control. Unreduced and reduced-motion browser checks, zoom/reflow, a keyboard walkthrough of this redesign, assistive-technology review and native-dialog behavior remain pending. These source checks do not establish a full accessibility audit.

In the learning samples

Prioritize Your Workload · Rise 360

Matrix categories pair color with labels and icons. Alternative text, labeled markers and native explanations provide the mapping. All four workflow images have task-specific alternatives. Native preview checks included keyboard operation of all matrix markers and sorting, retries and feedback, plus selected mobile views.

The matrix overview is compact on phones; expanded marker details provide larger explanations. The three-page planning PDF is fillable but untagged, and the activity also permits personal notes. A full published-course screen-reader and real-device review remains to be completed.

Write a Useful Support Ticket · Rise 360

Informational graphics have alternative text and adjacent native-text explanations. The optional silent video has an equivalent written example. Native checks covered correct answers, selected incorrect/retry paths, keyboard operation of the model accordions and selected mobile layouts.

The redesigned two-page reference and writing practice has six verified fillable fields, semibold labels and a clear reading hierarchy. It remains untagged. Learners may use their own notes for the writing task. Screen-reader and real-device testing remain to be completed.

Meeting Clarity · Rise 360 performance support

Plain-language scripts expand abbreviations, name decision authority and provide spoken, written and follow-up contribution routes. The proposal-and-decision diagram has concise alternative text and the exact statements in native text below it. Free section navigation and search support direct lookup.

Native Rise preview checks covered all four accordion controls with Enter or Space, direct section navigation, search, and selected desktop and phone-portrait layouts. The editable Word record uses real text and heading styles. The one-page printable PDF contains tags, but its reading order and screen-reader behavior have not been audited. Users may copy the native-text prompts into their own notes.

Full published-output keyboard, screen-reader, zoom and real-device testing, plus intended-user review, remain to be completed. These checks do not constitute a WCAG conformance claim.

Fieldwell · Product learning

The cutaway has a text description and four explanations that remain visible. Native buttons highlight parts with matching text status. Setup images have task-specific alternatives; practice uses labeled radio groups, choice-specific feedback and retries. The open response stays in the current page and is self-reviewed against a native disclosure, with no automatic scoring.

The sample uses locally hosted fonts, flexible layouts, visible focus and reduced-motion support. Source and actual-module event checks cover diagram selection, practice and reset behavior. Full browser, print-layout, zoom, keyboard-only, screen-reader and intended-user reviews remain pending. These implementation checks do not establish accessibility conformance.

RelayWorks · Software practice

Native labeled controls support editing, validation and explicit review. Error feedback identifies rows and fields. The source and reference stay available; the sample has no time limit, required audio or file upload. Table regions allow horizontal scrolling without hiding the remaining page. The print reference is untagged; the HTML reference offers reflowing native text.

Validation and state changes have automated checks. Browser, zoom, keyboard-only and screen-reader review of this new sample, and intended-user testing, remain pending. These implementation choices do not establish accessibility conformance.

Before Opening · Storyline course and HTML prototype

The practice uses text and standard buttons, with no required audio or time limit. Case facts stay available. Visible focus supports the changes between decisions and feedback.

The published Storyline build uses native text and controls and has been reviewed on three representative routes. Selected keyboard checks confirmed a visible focus indicator and Enter activation. Full focus-order, screen-reader, zoom and real-device testing remain pending. The Rise presentation uses a collapsed sidebar and full-width Storyline block. These native checks are separate from the HTML prototype tests.

A clear next step · Job aid

Read the responsive HTML version for native headings, lists and text that can reflow. The one-page PDF is a print reference; its PDF tagging and reading order have not yet been audited.

Linguistic Lanterns · Classroom products

The classroom demos include optional sound and motion controls. Their content areas can grow and scroll, and links return to the portfolio. Selected resource pages and English facilitator guidance explain the activities. The layout repairs still need a visual check on short and narrow screens; full keyboard, screen-reader and sensory-access reviews remain to be completed.

What I check next

Complete a keyboard-only walkthrough, check zoom and narrow-screen reflow, review with a screen reader, and observe representative learners using the published materials. Record issues and revise the interaction before claiming it meets a learner’s needs.
