The impact of switching from fluorescent lights to full-spectrum fluorescent and LED lighting in schools: An experiment in Victoria Int'l School in Sharjah
Summary:
This paper investigates the impact of different types of lighting (fluorescent, LED, and full spectrum) on the performance, focus, and motivation of children in classrooms, finding that LED lighting of 5000K or higher significantly impacts perceptions of attitudes and behaviors associated with alertness, focus, and performance.
