The following CourseArc blocks—Accordions, Cloze, Content, Graphing, Instructor Notes, and Tabs—have a WYSIWYG text editor that includes a foreign language tagging option. We are working on adding more WYSIWYG text editors to more blocks, too. If you do not see this 'Select Language' option and need it, ask your CourseArc System Administrator to submit a ticket to have this feature turned on for your organization.
In the block edit view of a supported block, use the Select Language dropdown to assign the appropriate language tag to the foreign language text.
Note: The supported content blocks will display each supported foreign language in a unique color.
Foreign language tagging enables screen readers to identify supported languages for learners. In this example, the tag lang="nl" indicates that the text following is Dutch.
By default, languages supported for tagging include Czech, French, German, Dutch, Italian, Japanese, Polish, Portuguese, Latin, and Spanish. Other foreign language options may be configured to replace one or more of the default options.
