Re: Online presentations with audio and captions

I just did some quick screen reader tests on Windows to see how far I could get. It did not work at all in Chrome/Chromevox (not surprising) and was moderately usable but fairly difficult to navigate with Firefox/NVDA. I was not able to use it with IE/Jaws (all the buttons came through as unlabeled), but I only have access to Jaws 13 and IE8 on this machine. It may work with newer versions.

The demo did not load at all on my iOS test devices, so it doesn't seem like there is a mobile fallback.

It's a Flash slideshow training widget so not possible to be accessible anywhere except on Windows. No iPhone, no Mac. I see it's keyboard accessible on Mac though in Chrome.

The linked page has 21 FireEyes issues and 72 HTML_CodeSniffer errors.

> Hello everyone,

> I am looking for some recommendations for accessible e-learning tools. My company wants to post presentations online as learning aids, along with an audio track explaining the slides. They also want to be able to add captions, for deaf/hard-of-hearing folks. They have been using Brainshark, but it converts all the slides to flash-based images and does not allow for caption tracks. Does anyone have suggestions for more accessible tools? We don't need any fancy features like quizzes.
