Background. Learning-teaching process is the core of education at any field. It has many aspects that interfering with it such as students’ effort in learning, motivation to learn, and learning engagement. As learning nature changes from face to face learning to be a blended learning that is growing to be a consistent educational strategy in many educational institutions worldwide, it is expected that learning-teaching aspects could be changed as well. Aim. It was to assess the relationship between learning-teaching aspects and blended learning satisfaction among students at faculty of nursing. Subjects & Methods. Predictive correlational design was conducted on (285) nursing students using 4 tools. They were Students’ Effort Scale, Science Motivation Questionnaire, Engagement Scale and Blended Learning Satisfaction Questionnaire. Results. Learning engagement had statistically significant positive correlation with student' effort and motivation to learn (P value<0.001). Whereas, blended learning satisfaction had only significant positive correlation with motivation to learn (P value=0.007). Blended learning satisfaction was increased by 0.576 with each one unit increase in students' motivation to learn. Learning engagement was increased by 1.571 and 0.488 with each one unit increase in students' effort and motivation to learn respectively. Conclusion. Blended learning satisfaction is varied and affected positively by overall learning-teaching aspects variations. Learning engagement is varied and affected positively by student' effort and motivation to learn variations. Recommendations. Energizing blended learning satisfaction and hence revitalizing learning-teaching process itself require sustaining motivation especially the role of educators in external motivation which is reflected on students’ effort and learning engagement improvement too. This could be through training program on students’ internal & external motivation, and regular triggering of it by nursing educators.

Background: Street sweeper workers play an important role in maintaining the health and cleanness in the communities. However, their work exposes them to various hazards while little or no attention is paid to their health condition. Aim of the work: This study was carried out to assess knowledge and practice regarding the occupational health hazards and safety measure practices among sweeper workers at Ismailia city. Setting: the study was conducted on sweeper workers in the first, second and third district at Ismailia city. Study Design : A descriptive study design was conducted Sample: convenient sampling from selected areas, sample size (330). Tools: A structured interview questionnaire consisting of 4 parts were used, basic characteristics of the sweepers, their knowledge, their practice of the safety measures, and fourth part assessed the actual application for the use of safety measure. Results: the results in this study revealed that the total knowledge is unsatisfactory (82.1 %) as well as inadequate practices of safety measures. There was a positive correlation between total knowledge of hazards and total practices of safety measures Conclusions: The exposure of the street sweepers to health hazards (physical, chemical, psychological, and ergonomic hazards) at their workplace was increased and this was resulting from the unsatisfactory awareness of health hazards related to the occupation of street sweepings, as well as lack of training especially regarding the use of personal protective equipment. Recommendations: Periodic health programs are needed to increase knowledge of street sweepers on different occupational health hazards, ergonomic principles and train them on using safety protective measures.
