| Abstract (English): |
A project was designed to explore colour vision deficiencies, specifically those experienced during work in the science lab. An attempt was made to experimentally determine whether or not something could be done about these deficiencies. That is, could the playing field be leveled for colour vision-deficient students by offering them a tool to improve the accuracy of their colour detection capabilities? One potential tool explored was a colour standard. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (French): |
Un projet pour explorer le daltonisme et ses effets surles résultats scientifiques a été conçus. Cette recherche a tenté de déterminer expérimentalement si on peut aider les personnes affectées par cette condition. Plus précisément, peut-on concevoir un outil qui permettrait les personnes affectées d'améliorer leurs capacités à identifier les couleurs? Ce projet a exploré la création de normes de couleurs comme un outil potentiel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
