Had quite an interesting morning, using the Ergo Assessment tools while watching videos. Now I'm thinking if we should include that in our Workplace Ergo Workshops Cel and I run in our hosp for our staff! After all, it is more effective if you teach people to do risk assessments rather than train them on what is good postures and stuff! But afternoon was a bit boring...title was Psychological aspects in displays, controls and interfaces. And both A. and I felt that the content didn't match our expectations..haha..I suggested it to be changed to "how to make good displays, controls and interfaces". The other lecture was on Human Error..hmm..not my interest and I can't see how it ties in with our module actually..haha!
Oh..had good news today! The lecture on Fri has been cancelled cos the speaker can't make it..so we were given option if to push one lecture on Thur pm to Fri or finish the students' presentations on Thur pm. I'm glad all of us chose the latter..so means we have Fri free!!! I'm glad cos I was worried if I can finish my assignment, given that I'll be attending a conference on Tue and Wed next week. But this assignment should be quite simple for me considering I've done many ergo assessment reports. But then, may be different thinking and will have to reference to legislations and Regulations here. Just hope I get good photos and videos on Thur when we'll be doing a worksite visit at our Sch of Mechanical Engineering.
Read 2 past year's dissertation that did systematic review..looked a bit overwhelming at first but when read the details then it seems manageable. They ended up with about 8 or 15 studies after including and excluding studies. I also have an idea of what else I can add into my Lit Review. May look at it tmr or on Fri again.
I've sent my scholarship letter to ISAS and emailed to say I'll proceed with my application now cos I really will need my passport on June and I'm not sure if it'll be in time if I were to apply in April (cos in my last email to her, I asked if it was better to apply now or after I'm back from April..that was before I decided to go ahead with my application anyway).
I'm v excited about my parents' trip!!! Though it's some time away, I'm vvv excited and looking at other cities I can bring them..maybe the coastal towns..which should be great in Summer. We shall see! Oh, and I realised Daylight Savings will start again on 30 March (I'll be in London!) and till the rest of the time I'm here! Which means I'll be 7 hours behind SG!! It means more waking hours to stay in touch!
