1 The Effect of Savings and Female Labor Force Participation on GDP in KSA and Kuwait during the period 1999-2019 by Dr. Puja Pawar, Aishah Aldowish, Tawari Alanazi, Sarah Rouwayjih & Ahlam Almalki This paper studies the effect of savings and female labor force participation on GDP in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. These countries were selected for study since they are experiencing tremendous change in female labor force participation in their total work force and increase in savings rate, affecting GDP growth, during the period 1999-2019. It was observed that very few studies have examined these factors. The study uses data from world development indicators. The method used to analyze and examine the data is an E-views program and simple regression analysis. It was seen that savings had a positive impact on GDP in both the countries. Female labor force participation has a negative impact in Kuwait and positive in Saudi Arabia. Kuwait has less and negative savings as compared to Saudi Arabia. Also, Kuwait has greater number of females in the male-female ratio. Thus, the study emphasizes increase in savings created positive impact on GDP in both countries but in Kuwait due to a greater number of females in the total population, savings has less positive impact on GDP compared to Saudi Arabia. 30-March-2023 24-June-2023/

3 Interplay Between French, Science and Mathematics: From A Linguistic Perspective by Andreas AWUTE The purpose of this paper has been to provide useful information on the interplay between the French language on one hand, and science and mathematics on the other. The problem for investigation is to examine the extent to which the French language could promote the learning of science and mathematics in our second-cycle institutions in Ghana. In other words, how the lack of knowledge in French could impede the learning of science and mathematics. The study was conducted at Achimota Senior High School in Ghana using two SHS 3 classes one of which is a French class and the other not. The study used ex-post facto design to examine the academic potential of the respondents in two science and mathematics mock examinations. Thus, data were collected through students’ scores in two mock examinations and a questionnaire administered to 19 science and mathematics teachers to solicit their views on whether students have difficulties in science and mathematics and if the French language could help remedy the situation. Having compared the science and mathematics scores of respondents, the study concluded that the French class is better performing in science and mathematics than the non-French class. The study concluded by recommending, among other things that both students’ and teachers’ attention be drawn to the symbiotic relationship that exists between French, science and mathematics. Also, the French language should not be too grammar oriented but rather pave the way for students to acquire vocabulary and expression that could enable them easily understand scientific and mathematical concepts for the benefit of positive transfer as far as learning across disciplines is concerned. 01-March-2023 15-June-2023/
