Which H5P apps are MOST accessible?
Hi everyone,
Here's a question for the H5P community and developers: Which H5P apps are the most accessible, based on the community's experience?
Our university uses Moodle as our LMS, and we have adopted the H5P library/plugin into our next Moodle upgrade. However, we also wish to promote making our LMS's content accessible to all users, and we note that some H5P apps, by their nature, do not seem accessibility-friendly. Since we want to be able to train our faculty in H5P's use, having some indication about which apps this community considers the most accessible, or can be made so, would be great. In short, we'd like to come up with a list--even if it's a short one--of H5P apps that we know we can reliably demonstrate to our faculty during training so they don't need to worry about accessibility when they use H5P in their courses.
Thanks in advance, everyone.

Accessible
This is not a complete list, and people are currently working on making all of the content types accessible (Summary, and Drag the Words is currently being worked on).
But here are some of the ones I know is accessible:

From the top of my head, I think the following has good accessibility support (using Chromevox):
Hopefully, we'll be seeing more content types improve their accessibility soon.
I hope this list is useful for you.

Wonderful start!
Thanks, gentlemen! I'll continue to monitor this thread for additional responses, of course, but the ones mentioned should give us a handful of apps that we can use to show off and train faculty about H5P.

How about Branching Scenarios? Are these accessible?
We are using Canvas as our LMS.

Great progress!
@fnoks, thanks for the update (and Chloe for chiming it to prompt it). I've made note of this and added these to a list I'm keeping, since it's very likely to be a question that our faculty will ask us. Keep up the good work! H5P has the potential to be an indispensable online teaching tool once the accessibility issues are sorted out.
Best,
ORMJR

AblePlayer - audio / video player with accessibility supports
I came across the AblePlayer - http://ableplayer.github.io/ableplayer/
This is a FOSS html5 video player developed by the University of Washington. It has support for caption files but also descriptive text and producing transcripts from a multi-chapter video.
A good example is at http://ableplayer.github.io/ableplayer/demos/video7.html
This might serve as good basis for improving the accessibility of the interactive video plugin.

Accessible Apps
We are interested in integrating H5P into our online courses and need to know which activities are accessible as those are the ones that we will want to focus on. Thank you for the partial lists above! How about Branching Scenarios? Are those accessible? Are there any we should stay clear of?
Our LMS is Canvas.
Thank you!

Content Types Missing
I want to try the Find the Word activity, but when I went to my h5p.com account, this was not a content type that showed in my list. How can I get this feature made available? I am also missing Image Pairing and Impressive Presentation.
