    Hello Kristine, thanks for posting this pitch, I think you are very well articulated and went in-depth about why you should deserve this spot. Overall, I think it was a good pitch, but if I have to point out one negative, I would say it would be the pacing, some parts were too fast for me to understand. I hope the company gets back to you and hires you.

    Your pitch was very detailed, providing many examples on how you can contribute back to the company through the various experiences you have. It can be nerve-wracking to present in front of a camera, but you show confidence through your body language and words.

Critical Reflection

Module Learning Previously I have mentioned during my introduction that through this module, I would like to work on delivering my words clearly and effectively, as well as maintaining eye contact with people I engage with. Through the course of these 13 weeks, I would like to confidently say that I have achieved my goals. Definitely, the learning aspects of this module are not limited, not only did I gain those skills, but I felt that I managed to weigh out the different factors that contributed to this gap I had. All these could not have been done without the help and support from my peers in my UCS module class, not to forget Professor Brad, who provided constructive feedback so that I was able to better myself in my traits and aspects, in terms of critical thinking and effective communication. On a side note, using the resources that were introduced to us in class has given me new insights on how to enhance both my critical thinking and effective communication.  I am able to wr...

Reader Response Draft #1

The article “Replacing Hearts. Restoring Lives.” (BiVACOR, n.d.) introduces the first long-term therapy for people with severe biventricular heart failure. BiVACOR’s Total Artificial Heart is a treatment option for individuals in the final stages of heart failure who require assistance while awaiting a heart transplant or are ineligible for transplantation. The BiVACOR system consists of a rotor suspended using advanced magnetic levitation (MAGLEV), positioned between opposing pump enclosures. Its central capability is to assist both the left and right sides of the heart, facilitated by impeller blades for each side, attached to the revolving core. The core is elevated and set in motion through an electromagnetic motor and bearing configuration situated atop the pump enclosures. The impellers are specifically engineered hydraulically and, when coupled with MAGLEV technology, allow precise control over circulation adjustment through a differential fluid discharge. With advanced technolo...

Self-Introduction Letter (UPDATED)

Subject: Introducing Kristine   Dear Professor Blackstone, My name is Kristine Yap, a Year 1 student in your Critical Thinking and Communicating Module, and I am writing to introduce myself and share a bit about who I am. I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic and attained my Diploma in Mechanical Engineering in 2019, I soon after stepped into the workforce, gaining about 3-4 months of experience as a Full-time Associate Engineer, before deciding to pursue my degree in Mechanical Engineering.  One of my communication strengths is providing empathic feedback. Being a camp coach, I felt the need to give constructive criticism and praise in a way that acknowledges the feelings of not only my kids but to any individual. This helps maintain positive relationships while addressing issues effectively. On the other hand, a communication weakness I realised in myself is that I have the tendency to ramble during conversations or explaining certain subjects. I sometimes provide exc...
