Advanced Lighting an User Designed Controls for Modern Classrooms
26 January 2023 | 5:30 pm - 8:30 pm EST

Presented by Taylor Rightmire, Area Vice President for Finelite Lighting.
This presentation examines prior research and a recent Department of Energy-funded study that states teachers, administrators, and other users see lighting as a powerful tool to enhance the learning environment and cue behavior within the classroom setting. A key objective of this presentation is to analyze how peers’ feedback led to the design of a user-friendly interface to meet the objectives of a simple, intuitive, preset control that teachers could modify to suit their goals.
