Canvas

Engineers are currently investigating the issue.

Description

All of the text elements in the first column, under "course activities", have been made keyboard focusable but lack any role.

Expected Behavior

Ensure custom controls provide proper textual name, role, and state information. Or, ideally we should put an info button next to the text and have it be a button that triggers a popover

Workaround

No workaround exists at this time.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. As a user, navigate to notifications settings

  2. Inspect the elements

  3. Note that they lack role
