Introduction
Humidity and temperature monitoring is very critical to staffs and students’ performance in schools. A school is an institution designed to allow and encourage students to learn, under the supervision of teachers. For teaching and learning to take place effectively, indoor environmental conditions should be monitored. It is essential to monitor humidity and temperature trends in schools, e.g. classrooms, staff rooms etc. Our products have additional benefits such as sending multiple alarms including SMS and e-mail to any location.

Effect of Humidity and temperature on student performance
According to USEPA report on indoor air quality and student performance, studies suggest that various activities such as typing or driving a vehicle are diminished when people are demonstrably too cold or too hot. Maintaining temperature at the warm end of the comfort zone tends to increase adverse health symptoms, while temperatures at the cool end of the comfort zone tend to reduce symptoms. Similarly, individuals perceive the quality of the indoor air to be better when humidity is at the low end of the comfort zone.
There is also good evidence that moderate changes in room temperature, even within the comfort zone, affect children’s abilities to perform mental tasks requiring concentration, such as addition, multiplication, and sentence comprehension. Overall, warmer temperatures tend to reduce performance, while colder temperatures reduce manual dexterity and speed. In general, the need to avoid extreme conditions and to provide for as much individual temperature control as possible is strongly supported.
