Abstract

Classrooms from the Midwest region of the United States were enrolled in a study to survey indoor air quality (IAQ) and thermal conditions (TC). Various IAQ and TC conditions were monitored in 220 classrooms during the school year from 2015 to 2017. The results showed the overall conditions of classroom IAQ and TC in the Midwest region. Seasonal variations of each of these conditions were also examined. This study provided valuable first-hand data in a large sample pool. Future research, including studies on student absenteeism or performance, could be developed based on the current data.
