Improved Accessibility in Assignment Input Fields

To improve clarity and accessibility, the Assignment Description area will now be expanded by default when the page loads. This ensures that the question is immediately visible and contextually connected to the answer field. Students can still choose to hide the description if needed, maintaining flexibility in the interface.

Improvements:

  • Better support for screen readers and keyboard navigation
  • Clearer context for students when responding to assignments
  • A more inclusive and user-friendly experience
