Daylighting in classrooms - the daylight factor as a performance criterion
Recent research has shown that environmental conditions in classrooms, and namely daylighting conditions, can influence students health, well-being and performance. In the last years several studies, dealing with the effects of environmental conditions in classrooms in the learning process, have been published (Winterbottom, & Wilkins, 2009; Barret ...

The New York Times Headquarters daylighting mockup: Monitored performance of the daylighting control system [PDF]
A nine-month monitored field study of the performance of automated roller shades and daylighting controls was conducted in a 401 m 2 unoccupied, furnished daylighting mockup. The mockup mimicked the southwest corner of a new 110 km 2 commercial building in New York, New York, where The New York Times will be the major tenant.
