Color Contrast & Readability

What Is It

Color contrast refers to the difference between text (or important visual elements) and the background behind them. Readability is how easily users can see and understand text and visual content. In digital course materials, sufficient contrast and clear text formatting ensure that content is legible across devices and learning environments.
