Ascariasis infection are common in worldwide. But information about surveillance on ascariasis in Sri Lanka is insufficient. This preliminary study was designed to determine the prevalence of ascariasis infections and their association with nutritional status children. Shared toilet facilities, live in attached houses, de-worming before 6 - 12 months period and before 12 months identified as risk factors of ascariasis and no statistically significant association between nutritional status and ascariasis.

Research was conducted to investigate the reasons behind low enrollment to programmes offered by the Faculty of Engineering Technology (FET) of the Open University of Sri Lanka (OUSL) in Regional Centres away from the main campus. A preliminary study was conducted to identify the issues behind reduced enrollment, taking Kandy Regional Centre (KRC) as a case study. Preliminary study revealed that improvements are needed in five contrasting areas to improve the rate of enrollment. Necessary measures were undertaken to address the issues identified in the five areas and the enrollments in the academic years 2011 and 2012 were observed to have a significant increase. It was exploited whether the increased enrollment is due to the improvements adopted in the identified areas. Results of a questionnaire administered among new registrants to FET in KRC for the academic year 2012 indicate that the measures adopted have reached the potential learners increasing the rate of enrollment.
