Classrooms – Towards Interactive, Healthy, and Comfortable Learning Environments

Goal – Along with health care and residential applications, classrooms are a top priority application for occupancy and indoor environmental quality and systems research. This is particularly relevant for schools, where students are growing physically and mentally, and therefore need the most adequate environments to promote growth attuned with the society and the environment.
