SUMMARY:K-12 Educational Design: Tour of the New Josiah Quincy Upper School
DESCRIPTION:Event Description:\nSited at the threshold of Boston’s Chinatown neighborhood\, the newly opened Josiah Quincy Upper School (JQUS) showcases equitable\, community-focused\, sustainable design as one of the first projects to open under the Green New Deal for Boston Public Schools initiative. The high-rise facility creates expanded opportunities for Boston students\, with spacious\, light-filled learning and common areas\, as well as a coveted rooftop green space that supports student wellness. \nLocated just opposite the Josiah Quincy Elementary School\, the two structures form a gateway into the Chinatown neighborhood and establish a notable academic presence. A variety of bold colors\, chosen to reflect the diversity of the school’s enrollment\, outline windows along the building’s façade. \nA welcoming vertical circulation core within the school connects the upper academic floors with public-facing spaces near ground level. This state-of-the-art educational facility features south-facing classrooms with expansive windows for optimal daylighting. Collaborative project areas at the heart of each floor link classrooms\, science labs\, and breakout spaces\, accommodating various group and individual learning modes with flexible furniture and diverse workspaces. \nDespite the constraints of the school’s one-acre urban site adjacent to two major highways\, the design maintains a connection to nature and prioritizes student well-being via an accessible rooftop. The occupiable roof provides space for movement\, hands-on project work\, and mindful contemplation. An innovative and efficient HVAC system draws in fresh\, highly filtered air for classrooms to ensure a healthy interior environment.

SUMMARY:How Tech is Changing Lighting Design Calculations
DESCRIPTION:When: Feb. 27 \nWhere: Cannon Design’s Boston Office \nSchedule: \n\n5:30-5:45: networking\n5:45-7:00: program\n7:00-7:30: clean-up\n\nDescription: \nLighting design is a complex profession\, whose tools have struggled to keep up with the pace of design.  The speakers will briefly review historical methods for calculations and move onto new paradigms for lighting analysis. They will also discuss how the core technologies such as the web\, cloud computing\, BIM\, daylight\, and artificial intelligence are shaping a new generation of design tools.  This talk will cover how these advances are changing the practice of lighting design. \nLearning Objectives:\n \n\nAttendees will be able to detail how cloud computing is changing design workflows\nAttendees will understand how they can leverage cloud storage to compare and access designs more easily\nAttendees will learn how BIM and raytracing are providing more detailed analysis with less work for lighting designers to work out problems.\nAttendees will be able to see how artificial intelligence can make IES recommendations more accessible.\n\nDan Glaser (Bio): \nDan Glaser is a lighting design tool builder with a passion for participatory design\, lighting science and application\, and technology. He is the Principal of LightStanza\, the lighting industry’s first cloud-based lighting analysis tool.  While a doctoral student in computer science and architecture at Berkeley Glaser started his research in this area\, being awarded an IES Alan Lucas Memorial Scholarship.  Glaser has since garnered research grants from the US Department of Energy and other sources and has published in leading Building and Computer Science journals including Building and Environment.  Glaser has also taught classes at the University of Colorado\, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute\, and at leading Lighting and Sustainability industry events.  For over a decade\, Glaser has been an active member of different IES technical committees. In addition to his work\, Glaser is a vegetarian and enjoys riding his fold-up bike between meetings and to and from airports.
