Study: Classroom Ventilation Affects Student Performance https://engineering.utulsa.edu/news/classroom-air-quality/
“The research suggests a correlation between stagnant air and students’ academic achievement within the range of 0.9 to 7.1 l/s per person. The study showed that for every unit (1 l/s per person) increase in the ventilation rate, the proportion of students passing standardized math test (i.e., scoring satisfactory or above) is expected to increase by 2.9 percent, and the proportion of students passing the standardized reading test is expected to increase by 2.7 percent.
