This paper aims to establish a unified framework for evaluating lighting in educational environments by reviewing current procedures.
Conducted a literature search in Scopus and Web of Science databases, selecting 19 relevant contributions.
Analyzed simulation-based procedures for evaluating visual and circadian lighting responses.
Identified methodological trends and gaps across the selected studies.
Work plane illuminance is widely used for quantifying visual comfort, while melanopic equivalent daylight illuminance is key for evaluating circadian responses.
Reference planes’ height is consistently around 70-80 cm for visual tasks and 120 cm for non-visual effects across studies.
Glare remains under-researched with varying approaches, and there is no consensus on dynamic versus static daylight simulation schedules.
