Research shows daylight can improve the students’ performance in classroom. Acceptable illuminance level recommended by guidelines in the world for learning space is between 300 lux to 500 lux. The illuminance level is measured at the working plane 800mm to 900mm table height, where the window sill height is at the similar height.
