Abstract

To increase environmental awareness of high school students, age 12 to 18, four experiments were developed to investigate indoor air quality (IAQ) and demonstrate influencing factors. Students learn about the functionality of different gas and PM sensors and carry out measurements of different pollu-tants or materials used in everyday life. They also experience the influence of human breath on IAQ.
