Instructions for the Teacher

Teacher usage

In your course, add the Accessibility review block and click the "Submit for analysis" button. After some minutes, you'll see the results of the analysis. Please note that the first time that you run the analysis is not immediate. You can also run the analysis from the Edit cog.

It includes the automated analysis of the requested Moodle course against a set of common accessibility rules. The Accessibility Toolkit then generates reports of all detected accessibility errors, which can also be broken down by type of content or type of activity. This provides insights to educators and organisations on the overall accessibility of their courses and the areas that should be improved.

Once a course has been analysed, any ongoing updates or edits or additions within the course will also be analysed automatically, being triggered by Moodle's event observers / callbacks.

The block will display useful information including:

•     A summary of the accessibility errors for the course categorized by type.
•     A heatmap which highlights the errors for each course element. You can activate or hide the heatmap by clicking on the eye.
•     A link to the accessibility toolkit which includes different reports and the error list with links to edit the mistakes
•     A link to download the accessibility toolkit summary report in a printable pdf format.

Note: Students cannot see this block, as it is only for teachers.
