Accessibility: Missing semantic markup for some elements of the plugin #228

Open mwreichel opened 1 month ago

Hi,

your activity is one of the most used plugins at the "Moodle an Hochschulen e.V." (https://moodle-an-hochschulen.de/) as well as in the German speaking Moodle community. Therefore our working group on Accessibility did some tests on this, based on the German BITV 2.0 (a modified version of WCAG 2.1).

While the majority of the tests passed, we found some minor issues regarding "Adaptability" (1.3) - Create content that can be presented in different ways (for example simpler layout) without losing information or structure. (https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/quickref/?showtechniques=131#adaptable)

Some elements don't have a semantic markup (see: https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/Techniques/general/G115.html) and therefore it is not correct readable by assisting software, e.g. the button "Save my choice", the link "View x responses", the text "The result will...". Please find these and some further examples of view.php marked in the attached screenshot.

mod_groupchoice_9-1-3

We tested this issue along the guidelines of BITV/ WCAG.

It would be glad if you could fix this bug. If this will be fixed, we could recommend your plugin as fully accessible within the German speaking community.

Many thanks in advance, Martin (for the working group "Accessibility")

Dear Martin,

Thank for reporting this. Could you please elaborate as to which specific WCAG rules are not being followed, and to which elements you refer?
