My Project

Most classrooms have fluorescent lighting. Fluorescent lighting is known to have adverse effects on those who have learning and behavioral concerns. Softer lighting is easier on the eyes and allows for better focus from students.

These lamps will allow for a more natural and softer hue in the classroom which benefits learning.

Without the lamps, it tends to be too dark with lights off, and students cannot give their best! These lamps will allow my students to sit in a softer or brighter classroom zone to help better address needs.
