Criteria | Conformance Level | Remarks and Explanations |
---|---|---|
1.1.1 Non-text Content | Partially Supports | This criterion is supported with the exception of very few instances of missing alt text or discernible text in the application and a few incorrect IDs in the code. |
1.2.1 Audio-only and Video-only (Prerecorded) | Not Applicable | Neither audio nor video are included in the product. |
Not Applicable | Neither audio nor video are included in the product. | |
1.2.3 Audio Description or Media Alternative (Prerecorded) | Not Applicable | Neither audio nor video are included in the product. |
1.3.1 Info and Relationships | Partially Supports | Most of the application supports this criterion, however certain tools including the Gradebook and Tests & Quizzes do not support this criterion as most form fields are lacking labels. |
1.3.2 Meaningful Sequence | Supports | When the sequence in which content is presented affects its meaning, a correct reading sequence can be programmatically determined. |
1.3.3 Sensory Characteristics | Supports | Instructions provided for understanding and operating content do not rely solely on sensory characteristics of components such as shape, size, visual location, orientation, or sound. |
1.4.1 Use of Color | Supports | Color is not used as the only visual means of conveying information, indicating an action, prompting a response, or distinguishing a visual element. |
1.4.2 Audio Control | Supports | The product does not contain audio set to autoplay. Users who add audio content can set the audio to “don’t autoplay.” |
2.1.1 Keyboard | Partially Supports | Overall, the application supports this criterion, however, there are small pieces of functionality throughout that are difficult to use with the keyboard. The Gradebook and Tests & Quizzes show significant difficulty for keyboard users. |
2.1.2 No Keyboard Trap | Supports | If keyboard focus can be moved to a component of the page using a keyboard interface, then focus can be moved away from that component using only a keyboard interface, and, if it requires more than unmodified arrow or tab keys or other standard exit methods, the user is advised of the method for moving focus away. |
2.1.4 Character Key Shortcuts | Not Evaluated | Product not tested for 2.1 criteria. |
2.2.1 Timing Adjustable | Supports | Tool allows author to adjust timing of content. Timed elements are only in use if an instructor has designed their content to be timed. Instructors can opt to avoid including timed elements. |
2.2.2 Pause, Stop, Hide | Supports | Product does not contain moving, blinking, scrolling, or auto-updating information unless added by a user. |
2.3.1 Three Flashes or Below Threshold | Supports | Web pages do not contain anything that flashes more than three times in any one second period unless added by a user. |
2.4.1 Bypass Blocks | Partially Supports | Application contains multiple bypass links with multiple methods of activation, however not all methods are currently working as described. At least one method of activation is working on all bypass links. |
2.4.2 Page Titled | Supports | Web pages have titles that describe topic or purpose. |
2.4.3 Focus Order | Partially Supports | Overall, the application supports this criterion, however, there are a few areas, such as modal windows, where focus order is somewhat unexpected. |
2.4.4 Link Purpose (In Context) | Partially Supports | Overall, the application supports this criterion, however, there are a handful of links scattered throughout which lack discernible text. |
2.5.1 Pointer Gestures | Not Evaluated | Product not tested for 2.1 criteria. |
2.5.2 Pointer Cancellation | Not Evaluated | Product not tested for 2.1 criteria. |
2.5.3 Label in Name | Not Evaluated | Product not tested for 2.1 criteria. |

3.1.1 Language of Page | Supports | Human language of pages can be programmatically determined. |
3.2.1 On Focus | Supports | When any component receives focus, it does not initiate a change of context. |
3.2.2 On Input | Partially Supports | Overall, the application supports this criterion, however, there are a handful of form elements which lack submit. |
3.3.1 Error Identification | Supports | If an input error is automatically detected, the item that is in error is identified and the error is described to the user in text. |
3.3.2 Labels or Instructions | Partially Supports | Most of the application supports this criteria, however certain tools including the Gradebook and Tests & Quizzes do not support this criterion as most form fields are lacking labels. |
4.1.1 Parsing | Partially Supports | Overall, the application supports this criterion, however, there are a handful of duplicate IDs in the code. |
4.1.2 Name, Role, Value | Partially Supports | Overall, the application supports this criterion, however, there are a few misused ARIA attributes, some missing ARIA states, and a few links are lacking discernible text. Many links in the Gradebook are lacking discernible text. |
