Assignment 1, Submission 1 : Formal Letter

Dear Professor Brad, It is with great enthusiasm that I am writing this letter introducing myself to you. My name is Seah Wang Zhe. I am currently a freshman at the Singapore Institute of Technology, majoring in civil engineering. Having graduated from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a diploma specialising in civil engineering, it was a matter of course for me to continue pursuing my tertiary studies within the same field of study. My deeply vested interest in civil engineering came about from a holiday trip to the city of Kobe, Japan, where I had the opportunity to visit and traverse the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. While travelling through this bridge, my tour bus experienced significant swaying due to tremors from a minor quake that hit the area. Thankfully, the bridge remained structurally stable, and I could cross the bridge safely. I later learned that the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge is one of the world’s most remarkable engineering feats and is structurally designed to withstand earthquakes mea...

Critical Reflection

It has been 13 weeks since I had set out to achieve two main goals through this effective communication module. The first goal is to develop my critical thinking skills and be a more effective learner and problem solver. My second goal is to be a more articulate and confident public speaker. It brings me great joy to say that I have made substantial progress and taken great strides toward these two goals.  The significant progress I made through this module can be heavily attributed to the weekly learning activities, abundant technical resources and plentiful opportunities to participate in class sharings. These weekly learning activities incorporate theoretical and practical components, allowing me to have a holistic experience applying the multiple concepts learned during class. This increased focus on applied learning helped make classes more interactive and enjoyable for me. In addition, a wide array of learning resources were made available, ranging from the technicalities of ...
