Abstract: BACKGROUND: A poor ergonomically and non-scientifically designed work environment and work station may severely affect the labour force's physical stress, labour productivity, and job performance.7 Musculoskeletal Disorders are described as an injury or dysfunction that commonly involves the supporting structures of the body as well as the nerves, muscles, bones and cartilages.8 In developing countries, musculoskeletal disorders are of serious concern. Many factors play a significant role in ergonomics, and these factors determine the health, safety, comfort and efficient performance at workplace.1In an Indian small scale manufacturing industries most of the work is still carried out standing and manually hence the issues of work related musculoskeletal disorders.....

Abstract: Online learning has become the most appropriate learning mode in numerous universities because of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, at the University of Guyana, there was little to no preparation in place to deal with the shift from face-to-face to the online mode of learning. During the pandemic, it was online learning that facilitated the university to keep its doors open. This study aimed at investigating students' online learning experiences with first-year Mathematics courses in the Department of Mathematics, Physics and Statistics, Faculty of Natural Sciences at the University of Guyana, Turkeyen Campus. The intended purpose of this study was to bring awareness of students' satisfaction with the online environment. Students' satisfaction with the online learning environment is critical to learning........

Abstract: Weighted sum of scores found over behavioral and perceptual-cognitive dimensions allow set to specific differential diagnosis with high reliability rating for currently three levels of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Indeed, a total of 124 people with ASD have participated in this study, 81 with ASD level- 1, 25 with ASD level- 2 and 18 with ASD level- 3 to aim the observations along six basic dimensions that make up disorder basic diagnosis: development, communication, interaction, behavior, attention and cognition. Differential data found by means of t test for independent samples allows conclude there´re significant differences relating the ASD level. Therefore it´s possible establish differential averages for each ASD level beginning p frequencies analysis regarding to total means, being ASD level- 1: between 5.77 and 7.88, ASD level- 2: between 7.89 and 9.01 and ASD level- 3: ≥ 9.02..

Abstract: To determine the incoming college students' preparedness for reading before the pandemic, several post-secondary institutions used the Accuplacer test and other multiple measures. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic (CDC Museum COVID-19 Timeline). Due to the limitations of administering the Accuplacer test during the pandemic, Kean University, USA used the Departmental Reading Test.Incoming first-year students who were placed in a Developmental Reading course based on the evaluation of their transcript of records and GPA took this test on the Blackboard Learning Management System (LMS). This study investigated the difference between the course placements of students before and after they had taken the......
