Abstract
This paper examines the influence of the thermal and lighting performance in classrooms on the cognitive productivity of students attending public schools in the principal three cities of Colombia: Bogota, Medellin and Cali. The methodology used involves the application of cognitive performance tests and thermal and visual perception surveys, along with measurements of climatic parameters in 34 classrooms of 14 schools in 2017 and 2018. The results were analyzed using transversal correlational regressions. Among the conclusions, this study found that the operative temperature turned out to be the most conclusive variable explaining cognitive performance relationships.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of the Journal of Green Building is to present the very best peer-reviewed research in green building design, construction, engineering, technological innovation, facilities management, building information modeling, and community and urban planning. The Research section of the Journal of Green Building publishes peer-reviewed articles in the fields of engineering, architecture, construction, construction management, building science, facilities management, landscape architecture, interior design, urban and community planning, and all disciplines related to the built environment. In addition, the Journal of Green Building offers the following sections: Industry Corner that offers applied articles of successfully completed sustainable buildings and landscapes; New Directions in Teaching and Research that offers guidance from teachers and researchers on incorporating innovative sustainable learning into the curriculum or the likely directions of future research; and Campus Sustainability that offers articles from programs dedicated to greening the university campus.
