As people develop higher standards for the beauty of urban architecture, more and more architectural designs are exploring sources of natural lighting, such as glass curtain walls and glass domes. However, the pursuit of architectural design aesthetics introduces glare into buildings, which can be uncomfortable and even dangerous for health. Scholars in related fields have carried out many theoretical studies and design activities based on this problem. In this study, we focus on issues of glare in public buildings, aiming to improve light comfort by solving this problem. First, we propose an improved design strategy based on IDEO design thinking by adding the step of diverging from the design scheme. Second, guided by the results of a questionnaire survey and light environment simulations, we avoided the subjective simplicity of the traditional design process. Third, taking the main library of Shanghai Jiao Tong University as an example, we designed a movable sunshade that could effectively reduce glare effects and improve visual comfort, which improved the light comfort in public buildings. The simulation results show that the proposed design can be useful in buildings to effectively control glare and improve visual comfort and health.

The aim of this study is to determine the relationship between occupants’ emotional attitude, decision behavior, and environmental cognition toward window seats and learning efficiency and the mechanism of this relationship in public spaces (represented by academic libraries). Surveys were delivered to the academic library of Shanghai Jiao Tong University. A total of 280 valid face-to-face interview questionnaires was collected and analyzed for correlation and validation of theoretical models. The results show that learning experience, as a mediator of learning efficiency, has a significant impact on the model of occupants’ attitude toward window seat consumption. The impact mechanism was determined, and it indicated that in order to improve the learning efficiency of occupants, indoor re-planning should be carried out to improve the seat satisfaction and occupancy rate. This study introduces the concepts of service design and architectural consumption and constructs an occupant emotional consumption context with the window seat as the consumption product. In addition, it also has guiding value for seat reallocation in public buildings in the COVID-19 era. This theoretical framework provides a direction for the simulation of future construction consumption behavior.

Securities investment is a subject with strong operability. This paper expounds the significance of teaching reform in relevant practical courses, and focuses on the analysis of existing problems, such as the lack of practical ability of teachers, the inadequacy of hardware equipment to meet the experimental requirements and the outdated teaching materials, etc. Finally, it puts forward targeted reform measures.
