Accessible Moodle (implementation guide)
The implementation aid Moodle barrier-free serves as support for the Moodle barrier-free checklist. The order of the aspects and the structure according to categories are the same.
Under the heading "What is meant by this? " you will find a detailed description of the aspect to be ticked off. The section "Why is it important?" describes which barriers you are removing with the respective aspect and for which groups of people this is essential. Finally, under the heading "How can I implement/check this?" you will find detailed instructions on how to implement or check the respective aspect.
7. Video and audio
7.4. Meaningful titles
Videos and audio files have a meaningful title.
What needs to be done?
The media files used should be named in such a way that they clearly and comprehensibly reflect their content or topic.
Why is it important?
A meaningful title for videos and audio files is of great importance to ensure that they are easier to find and can be distinguished from other content. This makes navigation much easier for all recipients, especially those who use screen readers.
How can I implement/check it?
In Moodle, there is an easy way to set titles for multimedia elements such as videos. For example, if you insert a video under the "Multimedia" section, you will find the option to specify a title in the "Display options". Here you should enter a clear and descriptive title that reflects the content of the video. This allows users to quickly identify and select the desired material without having to wade through unlabeled or poorly named files.
