Immersive Virtual Environments can provide users with a sense of spatial presence and experience. But learners with Color Vision Deficiency cannot receive information entirely in the environments because they are difficult to distinguish some or all colors. This study selects learners with red-green color blindness as the sample, and designs three kinds of barrier-free Teaching Resources based on a color scheme and color contrast to explore their impacts on spatial cognition and learning experience. The experimental results show that the Color Adjusted Teaching Resources has significant differences both in learning satisfaction and technology acceptance, and the Contrast Adjusted Teaching Resources performs an important role in improving spatial cognition and technology acceptance. In addition, the Color and Contrast Adjusted Teaching Resources is significantly different from the Color Adjusted Teaching Resources in spatial cognition. Therefore, the findings indicated that the barrier-free color scheme and higher contrast of Teaching Resources can significantly improve spatial cognition, learning satisfaction, and technology acceptance of learners with red-green color blindness. To some extent, the research results can contribute to the design of barrier-free Teaching Resources about red-green color blindness.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
