    Example Instructions for H5P Multiple Choice

    The multiple choice questions in this textbook are designed to be usable and accessible.  For example, they work with screen reading software and they do not require the use of a mouse to answer the questions.

    Generally, the multiple choice questions also work when the page is magnified up to 400% using the browser settings or when viewed on a mobile device.  However, when magnified or viewed on a mobile device, the Retry button text may not be visible: 

    • If the Retry button text is not visible, the Retry button can be identified by an icon with a circular arrow pointing towards the right.

    Example 2

      • Impacts users who are blind or who have low vision
      • Impacts users with learning disabilities
