Project contributions

 The contributions that I contributed:

1.)  I make sure that my group complete said tasks days before the actual deadline, so I can do some double-checking on the overall work and edits as per needed.

2.) I make our ideas more refined by researching and providing new pointers that could be added to our project. I do this by asking ourselves questions that steer us in the right direction, and also I read up more on the stakeholder we are targeting to have a clearer picture of the situation.

3.) I did researched on the possible introduction points that can put into the report. I did this by first, referring to the past students' sample work and came up with some that is relevant to my topic. From there, I used gAI to further expand on the pointers and from there, I pick out those that I feel is specific to our topic.

4.) I paraphrased our problem statement by properly stating everything that is in our ideal, gap and goal. I also paraphrased our purpose statement by looking through the past students' work.

Descriptive Reflection

Dear Professor Blackstone, My name is Bryan Peh, one of the students in your S20 Critical Thinking and Communicating module. I am writing to provide a detailed reflection on my educational background and my growing passion for engineering. In addition, I will discuss one communication strength and one weakness that I possess, as well as providing two specific goals I have for this module. My interest in engineering sparked at a very young age. What started as a fascination with remote-controlled cars, eventually led me to watch 'Top Gear', a television series that focuses on optimising the performance of automobiles. Learning more about how engines work in cars, I developed a deeper appreciation for the field. Therefore, I decided to pursue a diploma Mechanical Engineering at Ngee Ann Polytechnic, where I graduated in 2022. Being an engineering student, I recognise that my communication skills are not as strong as my technical skills. In spite of that, I believe that one of my

The Critical Role of Communication in Engineering Education

 “Without clear lines of communication, our ideas would stay within our own small development teams instead of becoming mature products. While this is obvious to those of us who have become experienced engineers, the real question is: Why is it lost to us when we are engineering students?” Akbar R Khan, Software Systems Engineer, USA, “Good Communication Is Essential...” (2014) My understanding of this quote is that through experiences in the real-world scenarios, people will develop the self-initiative to voice out their opinion, criticism or idea professionally towards any problem. This is a way to put themselves in the spotlight of their higher management to see them as someone with a passion to help the company grow in the right direction. However, as students, sometimes we prioritise grades over meaningful learning, therefore, we often take charge of individual work more than project work. Essentially, this means that group member expects another member to have the responsibility

Summary Draft 1 + Thesis

The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill utilizes NASA-developed Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology to assist in rehabilitation and athletic training by reducing the user’s effective body weight and providing accurate performance analysis (AlterG, n.d.). It comprises a treadmill surface, an inflatable air chamber that encases the lower body, and an advanced control system for adjusting body weight and delivering real-time feedback (NASA, 2009). Its precise body weight reduction capability ranges from 20% to 100%, creating a low-impact running surface that minimizes joint stress (NCBI, 2020). The air chamber generates an adjustable pressure environment, enabling users to experience various levels of weightlessness, thus facilitating effective training and rehabilitation (AlterG, n.d.; de Heer et al. , 2020, as cited in NCBI, n.d. ; NASA, 2009 ). Thesis statement : The NASA Differential Air Pressure technology has revolutionized rehabilitation and athletic training by reducing users'
