This paper (Part 1) gives an outline of the series of this productivity research and presents on the results of field intervention experiment. Here, we focused our attention on the effects of air change rate and studied thermal / air environmental effects on academic performance. The field intervention experiment was conducted in actual classroom with actual students, during normal lessons. It also involves quiz that are a part of a teaching curriculum. When air change rate is increased from 2.6 to 18.6m^3/h per person, academic performance evaluated by quiz score is improved significantly by 5.8% on average (p<0.0007). Similar trends were observed for self-estimated performance. Correlation analyses show that lower air change rates link to reduced academic performance. This experiment indicates that improving indoor environment conditions in classroom can substantially improve academic performance.
