These accessibility issues occur within the HTML course pages of eLearn more frequently than others. Both Panorama and the eLearn Edit Page editor make them relatively easy to fix. For any of these issues, you can select Learn More in the Panorama Accessibility Report to learn more about the issue and what it means.

This link should have a descriptive title.

Users who cannot see URL links and need to hear them read aloud perceive them differently than sighted users. Assistive technology users often hear links read out of context, whether tabbing through a webpage or reading a list of links. Full URLs can be cumbersome to read and “Click here” or “Read more” are vague and say nothing about where the link goes. Instead, use meaningful titles that describe where the link will go. When remediating this accessibility issue, you must be within the Edit Page mode of the eLearn course page.
