This study reports the outcomes of a systematic literature review, which aims to determine the influence of four indoor environmental parameters - indoor air, thermal, acoustic, and lighting conditions -on the quality of teaching and learning and on students' academic achievement in schools for higher education, defined as education at a college or university. By applying the Cochrane Collaboration Method, relevant scientific evidence was identified by systematically searching in multiple databases. After the screening process, 21 publications of high relevance and quality were included. The collected evidence showed that the indoor environmental quality (IEQ) can contribute positively to the quality of learning and short-term academic performance of students. However, the influence of all parameters on the quality of teaching and the long-term academic performance could not be determined yet. Students perform at their best in different IEQ conditions, and these conditions are task-dependent, suggesting that classrooms which provide multiple IEQ classroom conditions facilitate different learning tasks optimally. In addition, the presented evidence illuminates how to examine the influence of the IEQ on users. Finally, this information supports decision-makers in facility management and building systems engineering to improve the IEQ, and by doing so, allow teachers and students to perform optimally.
本研究报告了一项系统文献综述的结果，旨在确定四项室内环境参数——室内空气、热、声和光条件——对高等教育学校（定义为学院或大学教育）的教学质量和学生学业成绩的影响。通过应用 Cochrane 协作方法，系统地在多个数据库中进行搜索，确定了相关的科学证据。经过筛选过程，纳入了 21 篇高度相关和高质量的出版物。收集到的证据表明，室内环境质量（IEQ）可以对学生的学习质量和短期学业成绩产生积极影响。然而，所有参数对教学质量和长期学业成绩的影响尚无法确定。学生在不同的 IEQ 条件下表现最佳，这些条件是任务相关的，这表明提供多种 IEQ 教室条件的教室可以最优化地促进不同的学习任务。此外，所呈现的证据阐明了如何检查 IEQ 对用户的影响。最后，这些信息支持设施管理和建筑系统工程领域的决策者改善 IEQ，从而使教师和学生能够发挥最佳水平。
