“…Scholars (e.g. Hansen, Nielsen, Georgieva & Schledermann, 2017;Hayat, 2017;Morrow & Kanakri, 2018;Nepal & Maharjan, 2015;Wadhwa, 2016) have examined the effect of university/ school utilities quality. For instance, Hansen et al (2017) revealed that appropriate light in the school increased student concentration and promoted pro-social behaviour hence student engagement.…”

This study assessed the influence of university infrastructure quality on students’ engagement at the western branch of a private University in Bushenyi District, Uganda. Particularly, the study assessed the influence of lecture rooms infrastructure, university-level infrastructure and university utilities. Using the positivist approach, the study was guided by the correlational research design, collecting data using a questionnaire on a sample of 183 students. Descriptive analysis revealed that student engagement was high, lecture rooms’ infrastructure and university utilities were good. However, the students rated university-level infrastructure as fair. Regression analysis showed that lecture rooms’ infrastructure and university utilities were significant positive predictors of students’ engagement. However, university-level infrastructure had a positive but insignificant influence on students’ engagement. Thus, the quality of lecture rooms’ infrastructure is imperative, university utilities are essential and improved university-level infrastructure is a requirement for enhancing students’ engagement. Therefore, it was recommended that universities emphasise providing quality to classroom infrastructure, improve university-level infrastructure, and establish quality university utilities.

“…Приблизно після 2000 р., коли освітлювальна громада познайомилася з фундаментальними механізмами невізуальних біологічних ефектів, набагато більше вивчено у відношенні показників і шкільного освітлення [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Експериментальні умови цих досліджень відрізняються суттєво в локаціях на землі; дизайном вікон в будівлях; порою року (і, таким чином, впливом денного світла) і таймингом експериментів.…”

The issues of light non-visual influence on the human body during the work of office workers and students of educational institutions are considered. The necessity of creating a high-quality lighting environment of educational premises and offices by means of the corresponding dynamic lighting scenario taking into account non-visual effects of visible light is substantiated. The necessity of light levels revision of on working surfaces taking into account circadian effects is shown. The rapid development and increasing growth of LED lighting, which allows to obtain dynamic light scenes, as well as progress in knowledge of physiological mechanisms that regulate circadian rhythms, and their relationship with light stimuli allows to implement really high quality artificial lighting. The light environment not only affects the visual characteristics, but also has a significant impact on people through the so-called non-visual effects or those that do not form images (BOZ-effects) - mood, vivacity, circadian rhythms and more. It is important to combine visual and non-visual requirements with innovative lighting systems. Circadian lighting should always be evaluated at eye level, in the typical location of human existence in a specific internal environment. The improved lighting scenario involves synchronizing the light with the activity and circadian rhythms of consumers over a 24-hour cycle. Lighting in the auditoriums of educational institutions should meet the necessary visual requirements and create comfort for pupils and students. Audience lighting can be more efficient than lighting dynamics or dynamic lighting levels and color temperature. Automatic lighting control, which depends on the dynamics of daylight and should usually be built into the smart installation of dynamic lighting, should be a must.

“…In spite of adequacy of lighting in the classroom, it was also found to cause discomfort for students due to light glare on some essential components of classroom furniture, such as desks and whiteboards (Winterbottom & Wilkins, 2009). An emphasis was also placed on the presence of lighting control panel inside the classroom because of its positive effect on student engagement and mood during the school day (Morrow & Kanakri, 2018).…”

Building a school is an easy task, but keeping its physical facilities in a good condition is a real challenge. The literature indicates that the physical classroom environment has a critical role in the learning process. To optimize that role, the physical aspects being considered should be relevant to the human needs. This study was conducted to evaluate the physical aspects of classroom environment, which are related to students' needs. Data on 860 students from public high schools in Medina, Saudi Arabia, were collected using a paper-based closed-ended questionnaire. Multiple procedures were used for instrument validation, data screening, and data analysis. Findings from the study confirmed the validity of the proposed model for evaluating the physical environment. In addition, the findings suggest that the classroom environment needs improvement in the area of temperature, air quality, acoustics, class size, space, and cleanliness. Finally, implications for practice and future directions for research are discussed.
