This statement describes the extent to which accessibility requirements are met and, where applicable, identifies areas that are not accessible. Further information can be found on the official website for the accessibility statement for web and app applications of the Federal Government, accessible via the link https:~/~/www.barrierefreiheit-dienstekonsolidierung.bund.de/Webs/PB/DE/ barrierefreie_it/uebergreifende-anforderungen-web-und-app/erklaerung-zur-barrierefreiheit/erklaerung-zur-barrierefreiheit-node.html.
41 41  A declaration at the software level covers the functions of the learning platform, but not the content of individual courses. However, since an OPAL course consists mainly of learning materials for which the course coordinators are responsible, it makes sense to provide a course-related accessibility statement.

44 44  To make it easier for teachers to create such a statement, TU Dresden provides the LMS Check Generator for accessibility. The tool enables course administrators to:
42 + create a course-specific accessibility statement,
43 + identify potential barriers in texts, media and interactive content,
44 + provide support for the accessible design of teaching materials.

52 52  The tool guides you step by step through the creation of the declaration. The person responsible selects the course modules used in the course and then receives a checklist for the content. The generated declaration is provided as an accessible HTML file and can be embedded in the course as a page using the ‘Single Page’ course module. This means that the declaration is directly available in the course and easy for learners to find.
