How many times have you logged into your Zoom class and seen your students staring at their screens in a dark room with the only light coming from their device and maybe some fluorescent string lights? Believe it or not, the lighting in which our students use to learn has a huge effect on their productivity, engagement, and mental health. This is something that will benefit any subject and any age. In this seminar, you will learn exactly how natural lighting benefits our students, and ways you can implement natural lighting into your classroom- even if you don’t have windows!
