Dear Professor Brad, I am Liew Siew Hoong, 24, currently a Year 1 student studying in SIT’s Mechanical Design and Manufacturing Engineering course. Today, I am writing to you to share a little bit more about myself. I was also a Mechanical Engineering student back at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. I chose Engineering because I fell in love with the mechanics of automotive engineering. Since I was a little boy, I’ve always loved cars and it slowly developed into a passion for the automotive world. Having an outgoing personality, I’ve always found no trouble in talking to friends about anything under the sun. One example that I can cite from being a badminton player is how I always motivate my teammates to do their best regardless of the outcome. However, there’s no rose without a thorn, I am somebody who struggles with public speaking. When in front of a big audience or unfamiliar faces, I will lose confidence when speaking. I once had stage fright when I was called up to speak on beha...
Module learning: Starting of the module, my main aims were to better understand the art of public speaking and have more meaningful and effective conversations with my peers in class through critical thinking and empathy. Throughout the 13 weeks in the module, we’ve had countless number of presentations and public speaking opportunities, and I can now confidently say that I possess more technical ability and courage when it comes to public speaking. One key point in presentations and public speaking I have picked up is the preparation before it, the planning of the execution, the knowledge and pointers that I will need to share about and last but not least the flow of the presentation has to be adequate before one can step up to give a good and confident speech. I have also realised the importance of the PEEL framework where I can construct my delivery of points in a structured and comprehensive way as it allows me to link my opinions and facts with evidence. Besides the opport...
As stated by Roberts (2023) The 2.0L EA888 Engine is now renowned as one of the standout engines of the 21st Century. Over the course of the years, the EA888 has undergone remarkable evolution. Originating in 2007, Volkswagen aimed to revolutionize efficiency, performance, and emission standards, leading to the introduction of the first-generation EA888 engine, supplanting the EA113 series. (Catrina C, 2020). In contrast with the older, naturally aspirated (NA) technology of its predecessor, the EA888 introduced direct fuel injection for enhanced fuel efficiency and combustion control. As stated, in an article from greencarcongress.com (2021), the EA888 embraced turbocharging, a contemporary method to amplify torque and power in smaller-capacity engines. Now in its fourth generation, the EA888 has made significant strides. Equipped with an upgraded engine management system, it delivers superior performance, emissions control, and drivability. Furthermore, advancements in material...
