Summary Draft 2

 

According to “District heating and cooling systems” (2013), it stated that ENGIE aims to relieve the needs of the public and conserve nature by reducing carbon dioxide emission. ENGIE earn recognition as the “world’s largest independent provider of urban cooling networks” and is slowly broadening its network to all over the world. Currently, they are managing 320 systems globally and can be seen in Paris, the USA and even in Malaysia.

This article focuses on two systems, heating and cooling. The heating system focuses on warming up the building or city with the help of hot water and surcharge steam. However, the cooling network supplies cold water to the air conditioning system. Both systems help in conserving nature. The heating system uses available resources for heat generation while the cooling system uses lesser electricity and water and most importantly, releases lesser carbon dioxide.

Self Introduction: Formal Letter

Dear Professor Brad My name is Nur Farhanah. I am writing this letter to introduce myself to you. I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic in 2021, where I studied Electrical Engineering with Eco-Design.

Truthfully, I did not expect myself to continue studying as I am still unsure of what I want to do for my future. There are a lot of different types of communication skills. I believe that friendliness is one of my strengths in communication. Where honesty and kindness can help foster trust and understanding.

That affects my communication as I tend to blank out and not present fluently during the presentation. After which, I regret not being able to pre...

The Importance of communication skills for engineers

  “ Communication skills are an essential component in the education of  engineering students to facilitate not just students’ education but also to prepare  them for their future careers.”    Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007) Throughout our school years, we will be partnering with different course mates, allowing us to communicate with them. Most importantly, sharing and understanding our ideas will also help us prepare for our careers in the future. Hence, communication skills are an essential component in the education of engineering students. Nur Farhanah

Critical Reflection

Module learning The two main goals I have set at the start of the Effective Communication module was to be able to improve on my writing skills and able to step out of my comfort zone. Before the start of this module, I was not strong with my language which affected my writing and I aim to improve it. Throughout this module, I was able to do and learn the different types of writing. I was able to know how to paraphrase and summarise without changing the meaning of the whole sentence which is important for our writing to avoid plagiarism.  Stepping out of my comfort zone where I was able to present and discuss more during the lesson. Throughout the module, I have learnt some valuable steps on how to present and do a pitch correctly. For example, capturing the audience's attention by asking questions and even eye contact. In my previous presentation in polytechnic, I was allowed to refer to my script and present it to the class and there was no proper feedback on my presentation. Whe...
