TRANSCRIPT OF UNDERSTANDING KEYBOARD ACCESSIBILITY

Testing a video or audio player's controls for keyboard accessibility
is easier than it sounds [A YouTube video is displayed]! I've just 
selected a captioned YouTube video that I'd like to include with this 
week's lecture.

To check for keyboard accessibility, I'll start by pressing Tab.

See the yellow box that's appeared? That's called the focus. Depending
on your browser, it could also appear as a dotted line [as the Tab key
is pressed, a dotted box appears around menu items at the top of a 
web page].

Press Tab again and the focus should move to the next logical spot on
the controls.

Next, I want to try selecting something. For example, this video's play
button. So, I'll press Enter [a yellow box appears around the play
button].

Great! The video started to play. That means this video's controls have
basic keyboard accessibility.

This simple process can be used to assess the controls for an audio player, 
such as podcast and websites, as well. 

Taking a moment to check for keyboard accessibility will allow your
multimedia selections to be accessible to students who need to use a
keyboard to access your content instead of a mouse.
