Daylighting in Schools

A very long(139 pages) report on the relationship between daylighting and human performance. Studies done in California.I haven't read through the whole thing but there might be helpful information if you just browse through the pages and hit your eyes on something you might like. I found the Executive Summary, intro, and background helpful. Browse ahead :) http://www.pge.com/003_save_energy/003c_edu_train/pec/daylight/di_pubs/SchoolDetailed820App.PDF
