====== Accessibility ======

Moodle complies with the [[https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/|Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1]] AA conformity for accessibility. This means that the programming already supports the accessible design of courses. Even more important is however the implementation of the content by teachers and course leaders. \\
Moodle contains (since version 3.11) the //Brickfield Accessibility Starter Toolkit//.  Teachers can use this analysis function on request and receive tips on how to optimize their own course. \\

  * Start analysis: Course page > Actions menu > "**More**" > "**Accessibility Toolkit**".
  * [[https://docs.moodle.org/311/en/Accessibility_Toolkit|Accessibility Toolkit]] on Moodle.org.
