Summary Draft 2

In the article, “What are Solar Light Panels and how do they work” from Economic Times, Team ProductLine (2019) discussed that solar light panels are utilised for residential and commercial lighting. Photovoltaic (PV) modules, encompassing high-quality crystalline silicon solar cells, are used to create solar light panels. With these PV cells, light energy from the sun can be transformed into electrical energy to be utilised or stored. In terms of features, solar light panels are extremely durable and will only degrade gradually. According to the article , t he adequacy of these panels decreases by just 2% or less after one full year. Moreover , no t only do solar panels reduce the dependability on conventional power sources and fossil fuels, but they also do not produce deleterious greenhouse gases. PV cells come in a variety of shapes and sizes and can range in length from a few millimetres to several inches. These cells are combined to create PV modules that can be up to a “few

Summary Draft 1

The article “What are Solar Light Panels and how do they work” from The Economic Times, Rise (Team Product Line, 2019) Both residential and commercial lighting uses solar light panels. Photovoltaic (PV) modules are used to create solar light panels. High-quality crystalline silicon solar cells typically make up these PV modules. Using PV cells, light energy from the sun can be transformed into electrical energy that can be used immediately or stored for future use.   In terms of features, Solar light panels are extremely durable and only gradually degrade. Over the course of a full year, these panels' effectiveness drops by just 2% or less. Solar panels do not produce harmful greenhouse gases, reducing the reliance on traditional power sources and fossil fuels and help ing the environment. Individual solar or PV cells can generate electricity on their own and are constructed of semiconductor materials, such as silicon. PV cells can range in length from a few millimetres

Descriptive Reflection (Formal Introductory Letter)

  Dear Professor Brad Blackstone,     I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Muhammad 'Aqil, a first-year student in Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Engineering, and I am currently enrolled in your class for Critical Thinking and Communication.  I am writing to you to formally introduce myself and share my current goals for this module.  Prior to this, I graduated with a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering from Singapore Polytechnic and took a year-long break working for Murata as an Assistant Engineer in the Product Design Department.   I was given the opportunity to experience and conduct multiple mechanical and electrical testing in the research and development phase such as the altitude test. In this test, lithium-ion batteries would be placed in a pressurized chamber to simulate an airplane's altitude pressure on cargo. As the pressure gradually rise, sensors would automatically record the data of any changes in its physical structure and electrical performance. W

TASK 3 : THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION SKILLS FOR ENGINEERS

"Developing excellent communication skills is absolutely essential to effective leadership. The leader must be able to share knowledge and ideas to transmit a sense of urgency and enthusiasm to others. If a leader can't get a message across clearly and motivate others to act on it, then having a message doesn't even matter." Gilbert Amelio, former President and CEO of National Semiconductor Corp Effective leadership demands the development of great communication abilities. To convey a sense of urgency and zeal to others, the leader must be able to impart information and ideas. Having a message is useless if the leader cannot communicate properly and inspire people to take action. A good leader will have a great impact on others.
