Summary
This paper discusses the effects of full spectrum fluorescent lighting on cognitive functioning and concentration in a classroom setting, particularly for students with learning difficulties such as ADHD, Asperger's, and Dyslexia.
Categories
Education and learning: The paper explores the impact of lighting on student concentration and cognitive function in a classroom setting.
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): The study includes a focus on students diagnosed with ADHD and how lighting conditions may affect their concentration and learning.
Autism Spectrum Disorder: The study also considers students diagnosed with Asperger's, a form of Autism Spectrum Disorder, and how they may be affected by classroom lighting.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how full spectrum fluorescent lighting may impact cognitive functioning, including concentration and learning.
Lighting Design Considerations: The study explores the impact of different types of lighting (cool white fluorescent lighting versus full spectrum fluorescent lighting) in a classroom setting.
