Creating Better Places for Learning with Light

Ongoing research is discovering that balanced lighting systems in classrooms are vital for the learning of students and that one of the best ways to reduce melatonin levels (the hormone that induces sleep) is with the right type of light. Recent studies found that fewer mistakes are made, concentration is improved, and a curb in hyperactivity in younger pupils is achievable when adaptable lights are incorporated.
