 Title: The effects of heat on students in the learning environment

 Introduction

The purpose of this SBA is to study negative environmental impacts in schools around

Guyana. As temperatures rise, so does our awareness of the effects of heat on various aspects

of our lives. One critical area that deserves attention is education, particularly how extreme

heat impacts students in their learning environments.


 Background and Overview of the Issue/Problem Statement

 Heat has been a determining factor for most academic performances due to either

poor ventilation or high temperatures. It has been evident that students can learn more

than twice as quickly in cooler temperatures because they are more alert, and they pay

more attention in class.

 Statement of the Problem

The students of Marian Academy have been constantly complaining about the unbearable

heat throughout the day and as a result have been mentally and physically drained. This

leads to less productivity in the classroom.


Research Objectives
 To identify the negative effects of heat in the school environment

 To determine the ideal temperature for a normal classroom

 To quantify the average of students who want better temperature control
