After selecting the Color Contrast option, students can choose from six different options for their preferred color setting. Students see their screen change immediately after making a selection.

• No Changes (default setting): Standard color settings are applied to the student's screen.

• Increased Contrast: Changes the screen to use high-contrast colors (e.g., green, blue, white) to conform to specific ratios specified by WCAG AA.

• Grayscale: Changes objects on the screen to shades of gray, black, and white. The grayscale display setting is an alternative high contrast/low contrast setting for accessibility.

• Inverted Color: Replaces a color with its opposite color. For example, black becomes white and white becomes back.

• Inverted Grayscale: Works in the opposite of the Grayscale option. Replaces a color with its opposite color.

• Yellow on Black: Changes objects on the screen to shades of yellow and black.

After selecting the Color Blindness option, students complete a two-step process to choose their preferred color setting.

The selected options will be saved automatically.
