Ergonomics in schools.

This Special Issue on Ergonomics in Schools is dedicated to the memory of my co-guest editor Cheryl Bennett who sadly and unexpectedly passed away peacefully on 2 July 2007 - only 10 days before this editorial was completed. Cheryl was inspirational in her vigorous championing of this new area of ergonomics activity, most prominently and to great effect through her foundation chairmanship of the International Ergonomics Association (IEA) Technical Committee on Ergonomics for Children in Educational Environments (ECEE) (see www.iea.cc).
