  • Green Buildings, Organizational Success, and Occupant Productivity
    Green Buildings, Organizational Success, and Occupant Productivity Judith H. Heerwagen, Ph.D. J.H. Heerwagen & Associates, Inc. 2716 NE 91st St. Seattle, Washington 98115 [email protected] Published in a special edition of Building Research and Information Vol. 28 (5), 2000:353-367 London, UK Cost + Value symposium paper. Final. 1 GREEN BUILDINGS: A Strategic Perspective A recent survey by U.S. Green Building Council shows that many of its members believe sustainable building design will become a more common practice once the human benefits are identified, primarily the productivity gains believed to be associated with the provision of high quality interior environments (USGBC, 1999). However, there is little understanding of how such benefits might accrue. That is, what are the key green building features and attributes? How do these physical elements affect the physiological, psychological, cognitive, and social functioning of building occupants? Just as important from a business perspective: can green buildings affect high-level organizational outcomes, such as profitability, customer satisfaction, and innovation? If so, what are the linkages? A full understanding of the human and organizational benefits of green buildings demands a broader perspective that links building design, organizational performance, and human factors research. Recent research on the biophysical foundations of organizations also suggests that a better understanding of business-society-nature links could provide beneficial insights about green buildings and business strategy (Gladwin et al, 1995). As the most visible manifestation of corporate values and ethics, buildings provide a unique insight into the workings of an organization – a view that is not well understood.

  • Choosing the Best Strategies for Supporting New Teachers
    01-Hicks.qxd 10/26/2004 11:30 AM Page 5 1 Choosing the Best Strategies for Supporting New Teachers “We cannot hold a torch to light another’s path without brightening our own.” Ben Sweetland STRATEGY 1: Don’t underestimate the rigors of the “induction” period for new teachers. What the Research Says This study revealed that learning to become a mentor is a conscious process of induction into a different teaching context and does not “emerge” naturally from being a good teacher of children. • 5 01-Hicks.qxd 10/26/2004 11:30 AM Page 6 6 • What Successful Mentors Do The study took place in Israel at a high school where the teacher-mentor worked as a teacher-leader within her English department. An English teacher in her 40s, with 15 years of teaching experience, was assigned a role as a mentor without any formal training. The research focused on one mentor and the process of learning to mentor to provide a more in-depth and substantial account of the subtleties and complexities of the process of learning to “read” mentoring situations. “Reading a mentoring situation” in this context describes the forms and meanings that the mentor attributed to her first year of mentor induc- tion. It is the case of how one experienced teacher in English learned to analyze one aspect of her learning in talking to mentor teachers of English about her formative stages of mentor induction experiences. The metaphor for the mentored relationship is to compare the inter- active process of reading, combining textual information with the infor- mation the reader brings to the text, as a dialog between the reader and the text.

  • Sick Building Syndrome by WHO.Pdf
    Sick building syndrome By: World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe Summary Sick Building Syndrome (SBS) describes a medical condition where people in a building suffer from symptoms of illness or feel unwell for no apparent reason. The symptoms tend to increase in severity with the time people spend in the building, and improve over time or even disappear when people are away from the building. Sick Building Syndrome results in substantial disruption of people's work performance and personal relationships, and considerable loss of productivity. Sick Building Syndrome is wide spread and may occur in offices, apartment houses, nurseries and schools, resulting in substantial costs to the community. Even though the cause effect relations are unclear it is possible to remedy buildings with SBS problems, and for new buildings the chances of avoiding SBS problems are also good. Local Government actions can be both for implementing curative measures and for taking preventive actions. These measures and actions range from simple to radical. In recent years it has become apparent that occupants of buildings suffer a number of relatively minor illnesses where there is no apparent cause, yet it has been established that these are caused in some way by the building. The symptoms are varying degrees of irritation of the eyes, nose, throat or skin plus general symptoms such as lethargy and headaches. Because these illnesses may happen in the building or elsewhere, it was initially difficult to show that they could be caused by the building. While these symptoms may seem trivial at first sight, together they are a substantial problem.

As the dangers to land, rivers and oceans have become painfully obvious, the con- cern over public health and safety has grown. Efforts to conserve energy and insulate ourselves against an increasingly polluted world have created an entirely new type of environmental concern: indoor air pollution.

  • Inquiry Into Biotoxin-Related Illnesses in Australia Submission 33
    COVERING LETTER RE: Inquiry into Biotoxin-related Illnesses in Australia, 1st August 2018 Thank you for the opportunity to make a submission to this inquiry. About Biological Health Services is one of Australia’s leading environmental consultancies and laboratories and provides on-site water damage assessment and mould inspections. We also process samples sent in to us from remediation contractors, assessors, occupational hygienists, tenants and homeowner occupants and from patients under medical or allied health-care from across Australia. I write to you on behalf of Biological Health Services and by way of background will explain who I am. My name is Dr. Cameron Jones and I’m an environmental microbiologist. I have worked in the area of fungal biology (mycology) since 1991 at University as a PhD level academic researcher and lecturer in microbiology and environmental health respectively. More recently, and for close to a decade I have run Biological Health Services which is a commercial indoor air quality and microbiology lab and consultancy and am an active contributor at scientific conferences. I am also an Adjunct Research Fellow at the National Institute of Integrative Medicine and am regularly called upon as an expert witness in mould and water damage disputes. On this basis, I am pleased to make this submission to the Inquiry into Biotoxin-related Illnesses in Australia. Introduction In order to highlight what is common to so many of the disputes surrounding biotoxin- related illness I will recap on how I first became involved in this area. In 2005 I was engaged to perform my first paid indoor air quality and mould inspection for a couple who wanted their home tested.
