Graphic, glossary, resources

What this lesson covers

1. 01

   Three reference layouts

   Labeled graphics work when the learner must connect labels to parts they will touch. Glossaries belong when terminology is dense and consistent definitions prevent SME drift. Resources slides cite papers, policies, and job aids — they are not a substitute for practice, but they make the course auditable.

2. 02

   Hotspots still need a non-pointer path

   A labeled graphic fails production review when the only way to read a part name is to hover or drag. WCAG 2.2 expects a keyboard path and a visible name, not color alone. In Studio, pair each hotspot with a list the learner can tab through, and write the Arabic label in the storyboard — do not leave English callouts on an RTL screen. If the parts are not spatial (a policy has no “location”), use a glossary instead of forcing a diagram.

3. 03

   Glossary drift is a production defect

   Twelve compliance acronyms in one module will be redefined by every SME unless you lock a glossary early. Write the term, the one-sentence job meaning, and what it is not. “Tagout” is not “turn it off.” Resources slides come after practice: the procedure PDF, the WCAG criterion, the escalation contact. They are the audit trail, not the rehearsal. A resources slide that replaces the gate teaches lookup and then certifies nothing.
