Ding, Er (author), Zhang, D. (author), Hamida, A.B. (author), Garcia Sanchez, C. (author), Jonker, Lotte (author), de Boer, Annemarijn R. (author), Bruijning, Patricia C.J.L. (author), Linde, Kimberly J. (author), Wouters, Inge M. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)During the COVID-19 pandemic, the importance of ventilation was widely stressed and new protocols of ventilation were implemented in school buildings worldwide. In the Netherlands, schools were recommended to keep the windows and doors open, and after a national lockdown more stringent measures such as reduction of occupancy were introduced. In...journal article 2023

Abreu Vieira Viula, R.J. (author)Provision of daylight without the risk of discomfort glare is one of the aspects that determine the quality of the classroom environment. Although discomfort glare from daylight is under investigation for a long time, a knowledge gap concerning the applicability of the existing metrics to the spatial conditions of the classroom is identified in...doctoral thesis 2022

van Binnendijk, Mathijs (author), Lichtenberg, Ciarán (author)Technology is playing an increasingly important role in education, partially thanks to emerging teaching methods such as hybrid education. Smart classrooms equipped with technology can make the lives of the educators and students easier, and aid in the switch to hybrid education. In this work we propose an IoT based smart classroom framework to...bachelor thesis 2022

Smeele, Bas (author), Vuong, Mitchell (author)In this work, we propose an IoT smart classroom framework which will be the base for smart classroom and hybrid teaching applications. The prototype introduces sensor readout capabilities, with which temperature, humidity, and loudness in a classroom can be monitored. Furthermore, the prototype introduces capabilities to collect and display...bachelor thesis 2022

Ding, Er (author), Zhang, D. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Airborne transmission of small respiratory droplets (i.e., aerosols) is one of the dominant transmission routes of pathogens of several contagious respiratory diseases, which mainly takes place between occupants when sharing indoor spaces. The important role of ventilation in airborne infection control has been extensively discussed in...review 2022

Zhang, D. (author), Ding, Er (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Several recent studies have demonstrated that ventilation plays an important role in the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 (the coronavirus that causes COVID-19) in public buildings, such as schools. However, there are no clear rules on how to assess the ventilation performance in classrooms, especially during a pandemic. Therefore, the main objective...conference paper 2022

Zhang, D. (author), Ding, Er (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Since the COVID-19 pandemic, the ventilation of school buildings has attracted considerable attention from the general public and researchers. However, guidance to assess the ventilation performance in classrooms, especially during a pandemic, is still lacking. Therefore, aiming to fill this gap, this study conducted a full-scale laboratory...journal article 2022

Van Dijken, Froukje (author), te Kulve, Marije (author), Ursem, W.N.J. (author)Buildings located close to busy roads, industry or stock farms, are of risk of increased indoor particle concentrations, which negatively impacts the health of the building occupants. In order to reduce the exposure of the building occupants, it is important to take measures to reduce the concentration of particulate matter indoors. Solutions...conference paper 2022

Murgia, Emiliana (author), Landoni, Monica (author), Huibers, Theo (author), Pera, M.S. (author)In this manuscript, we discuss the findings from an introductory survey conducted with more than 50 teachers in Italy. We inquired about teachers’ opinions of educational technology used in the classroom, in particular search tools. Qualitative and quantitative data inferred from collected responses provide us with a multifaceted picture of...conference paper 2022

Bosnić, I. (author), Čavrak, I. (author), van Loenen, B. (author)Various “open” concepts in Computing, such as open standards, open data, open licenses or system interoperability are becoming more important in the professional lives of software engineers. However, students usually do not receive a systematic education about these concepts; rather they sporadically learn about a subset of these topics. This...journal article 2022

Ding, Er (author), Zhang, D. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)To investigate the sufficiency of ventilation during the COVID-19 pandemic for school children, a field study was conducted in 37 classrooms of 11 Dutch secondary schools between October 2020 and June 2021. All the classrooms were visited twice, before and after a three-month national lockdown, when different measures against COVID-19 were taken...conference paper 2022

Zhang, D. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Airborne transmission has been confirmed as one of three principal ways of SARS-CoV-2 transmission. To reduce the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 indoors, understanding the distribution of respiratory droplets (or aerosols) present in human breath seems therefore important. To study whether the CO2 concentration can be used as a proxy for the number...journal article 2022

Roelofsen, C.P.G. (author)Door de coronapandemie is er weer volop aandacht voor de binnenluchtkwaliteit in scholen. Een grootschalige inventarisatie van de ventilatiesystemen in schoolgebouwen heeft de nodige manco’s aan het licht gebracht. Inmiddels zijn verschillende mogelijke oplossingen voorgesteld om de besmettingskans in lesruimten te verminderen. Een daarvan is...journal article 2021

Zhang, D. (author), Tenpierik, M.J. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)A recently published simulation-based study has demonstrated the effect of an individually controlled noise-reducing device (ICND) on improving acoustic quality in classrooms. As a follow-up research, this current study aims to develop a real ICND and test it with its target users-- primary school children. The prototype developed in this study...journal article 2021

Bluyssen, P.M. (author), Kim, D.H. (author), Eijkelenboom, A.M. (author), Ortiz, Marco A. (author)To identify current problems in the classroom and to conceptualize design solutions by primary school children to solve these problems, 335 children from seven primary schools participated in a workshop held in the Experience room of the SenseLab, comprising of two parts. In part 1, the children were asked to think about their own classroom...journal article 2020

Zhang, D. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in classrooms can have an effect on school children’s comfort, health, and performance. In most classrooms, the teacher is the only one who can take actions to change the IEQ. The objective of this study was to identify what teachers usually do to improve IEQ in classrooms and how these actions relate to...journal article 2019

Zhang, D. (author), Tenpierik, M.J. (author), Bluyssen, P.M. (author)This paper aims to design an “individually controlled system” (ICS) for children in class-rooms based on their preferences and needs. It is well known that a higher satisfaction of in-door environmental quality (IEQ), including thermal, air, visual and acoustical quality, can be achieved by giving occupants control over their local environment....abstract 2018
