abstract = {Managing indoor environmental quality (IEQ) is a challenge in educational buildings in the
wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Adequate indoor air quality is essential to ensure that indoor spaces
are safe for students and teachers. In fact, poor IEQ can affect academic performance and student
comfort. This study proposes a framework for integrating occupants’ feedback into the building
information modelling (BIM) methodology to assess indoor environmental conditions (thermal,
acoustic and lighting) and the individual airborne virus transmission risk during teaching activities.
The information contained in the parametric 3D BIM model and the algorithmic environment of
Dynamo were used to develop the framework. The IEQ evaluation is based on sensor monitoring
and a daily schedule, so the results show real problems of occupants’ dissatisfaction. The output of
the framework shows in which range the indoor environmental variables were (optimal, acceptable
and unacceptable) and the probability of infection during each lecture class (whether or not 1% is
exceeded). A case study was proposed to illustrate its application and validate it. The outcomes
provide key information to support the decision-making process for managing IEQ and controlling
individual airborne virus transmission risks. Long-term application could provide data that support
the management of ventilation strategies and protocol redesign.},
