7.2.35: Mark the Words (Requires Alternative Activity)
Query \(\PageIndex{1}\)
Overall Usability
Requires Alternative Activity:
- This activity is not usable by some users.
Important Reminders
This activity is not accessible with screen reading software like JAWS and NVDA. The reading order is not logical and may be very confusing for users. H5P added a “text only” version of the question text, not visible on screen. This requires a user of screen reading software to read the text of all the questions in the activity first, then read the questions again and attempt to find the words to mark.
The structure of the activity is another significant accessibility barrier. While the activity may visually appear to have sentences, and a beginning and end, it is programmed as a list of words.
The Mark the Words activity type is not recommended for use until H5P implements recommended fixes for these and other accessibility barriers that have been reported.
Several significant accessibility barriers have been documented with this activity. Provide an alternative activity that is usable with screen reading software. This activity may be usable with very short groups of words or sentences, but not with multiple sentences or long passages of content.
Visible Indication of Focus

Color Contrast
The visible indication of focus has good contrast. The visible indication of focus is a thin black line. Users who require a visible indication of focus with more contrast may use assistive technology.

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.
