Description
Summary:This research focuses on the indoor environmental quality (IEQ) in classrooms located in UiTM Seri Iskandar. The aim of this research is to identify possible solution that contribute to a better IEQ. The objective of this research is to investigate the level of IEQ parameters in selected classroom which is standard classroom, lecture hall and computer lab. An observation method is employed, utilizing a specialized equipment which is 4 in 1 meter and sound level meter to collect the data of IEQ elements. The research's findings appear to indicate the current IEQ conditions in the selected classrooms may be unsatisfactory, which can have an impact on student satisfaction and academic performance. Several major recommendations are made to overcome these challenges and provide a suitable learning environment. Based on the research findings, recommendations are provided to enhance IEQ conditions in classroom. These include improving the ventilation system, improving on maintenance of the building especially HVAC systems, and always monitor the level of IEQ. By implementing these recommendations, management can make informed decision-making about which variables are the most critical to ensure the maximum level of student satisfaction and performance if they have a better grasp of how these variables affect students' satisfaction and performance.
