I love Effective Communication

Heading towards the final phase of my first trimester in Singapore Institute of Technology, I have come to realized the importance of effective communication. Varying from the 7 C's of communication to applying proper report writing skills, the Effective Communication module has provided me with irreplaceable skill sets that will guide me through my professional career in the future. Referring to my descriptive reflection that was written back in week 1 of the module, I expressed my intention to reduce the usage of creole language during my presentation. Thankfully, I was able to achieve a satisfying grade for my oral presentation. Overall, it boosted my confidence and I am convinced that I would be able to excel in my presentation skills in the future. Another aspect that I would be talking about is teamwork skills. Throughout the past 11 weeks, I have come to realized the importance of teamwork. As the technical report require a lot of work to be done, I often find myself rel...

Benefits Of EBFS The Electronic Bus Flagging System can provide several benefits that can improve the efficiency of the bus services, ranging from safety to maximizing comfort for the commuters. Some examples of benefits are listed below: 5.1 Promotes a safer environment Commuters have the tendency to overextend from the yellow lines with intentions of catching the attention of the bus operators. This poses potential safety issues to both the commuters and the bus operators. With the implementation of the EFBS, commuters do not have to manually flag for buses that they want to board. Instead, commuters are able to notify bus operators in advance certain buses that they want to take through the indication board. 5.2 Increases efficiency for bus services With the implementation of DNP, bus drivers can be notified in advance certain buses that the commuters intend to board. The bus operator will be given ample reaction time to aid them in their decision as whether...

Benefits of Proposed Solution The Electronic Bus Flagging System can provide several benefits that can improve the efficiency of the bus services, ranging from safety to maximizing comfort for the commuters. Some examples of benefits are listed below:   Easy to implement Renovating an entire bus stop can be very easy to implement by just replacing it with a temporary bus stop. Not only can the temporary bus stop be placed right beside the renovating bus stop, it disrupts little to none of the traffic flow. Commuters will not feel any unease as the temporary bus stop will be almost exactly at the same spot as the renovating bus stop. Promote a safer environment Implementing a bus indication system allows commuters to state beforehand which specific bus they are intending to board. Through the indication system, the information will be sent over to the driver notification panel. Commuters do not have to resort to flagging as commuters tend to step too close to the...

On 2 nd November 2017, I had a mock oral presentation alongside my group members regarding our technical report proposal. I was tasked to present about the benefits and limitations of our proposal. Overall, I was able to convey my messages across effectively by speaking in a clear and concise manner. Additionally, the incorporation of visual aids in the slides enabled an accurate projection of our ideas. While the feedbacks were mainly positive, there are some room for improvements. Firstly, my awkward stance and excessive hand movements exhibited uncertainty and nervousness. These unnatural body languages might encourage the audience to doubt the credibility of my words. Secondly, I exceeded the time limit due to the lack of time management and prioritization skills. This may be due to irrelevant points that I might have covered during my presentation, resulting in a waste of time. Another possible reason may be because I have many points to cover and that causes me to exceed th...
