Reflection

Over this period of learning through this module, I have became more aware of my strengths and weaknesses through written and verbal communication. This course is a great reminder of how important it is to communicate well and correctly which will be very essential when I go to the workforce.I also learnt how to write a formal email and report better with the required professional standards such as the APA style. I have also seen myself taking charge of teamwork better as a leader with greater patience as compared to my past experiences as the lead. With all the constant feedbacks and advices from Prof Brad, it enables me to improve faster. I am more confident with presentations now and more motivated to further improve my overall communication skills. During the showcase last week, I have observed how the different groups present their ideas.  As an audience, I was impressed by NoticeU Technology.  The strategies they used to draw the audience in and gain points are very u...

Self-Introduction

Dear Professor Brad, I am Ng Rycca from Telematics (Intelligent Transportation System Engineering) (TLM) course in Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT). I have previously graduated from Multimedia and Infocomn Technology at Nanyang Polytechnic. I have great interest in railway systems and satellites and i hope to become an engineer who can make a great difference within the engineering industry in the future. In addition, i also have a great passion for dance and piano as well and i have been taking them up since young. Communication is something that i enjoy doing especially when it comes to deep and meaningful conversations. I am good at communicating with different types of people of all ages as i have learnt to understand from their point of view and empathize with their situations.
