As an educator, I'm always looking for ways to make any content more accessible, whether it is a powerpoint, video, tweet, or something else. (If you have anything you would like to share, I'd love to hear about it!) Here is what I have found regarding colorblindness (1/5)
I'm tweeting about this specifically because I haven't seen too much about how to use color in a way that allows those with colorblindness to be able to distinguish between different areas in graphics and pictures. This is especially important in research article figures! (2/5)
I came across Dr. Mark Siegal's website [wp.nyu.edu/siegal/] at New York University that contained links for colors that are friendly to people with color-blindness. There is a color palette table there with values that you can specify in programs for these colors. (3/5)
The other link Dr. Siegal provided goes to this website [jfly.uni-koeln.de/color/] which is a treasure trove of information about color blindness and how they determined which shades of colors could be easily seen by people with colorblindness! (4/5)
The last website link here is for the Color Universal Design Organization [cudo.jp/e/]. It is in Japanese and may require a website translator. This organization has been around for a long time and is a great source of information as well! (5/5)
