Soul of communication response

-

 Communication and critical thinking are some of the most important aspects companies have to take into consideration when hiring and promoting. When there is a lack of effective communication in the workplace, employees are not being utilised to the best of their abilities and employers most times lose out on higher revenues and effectiveness in the workplace.

As a future leader, I firmly believe that the bridge between management and workers comes in the form of having a middleman who fully understands what is wanted as well as what can be done within the stipulated time period.  It is crucial that employees be given resources that will allow them to further understand effective communication and critical thinking, such as workshops and seminars. This will allow them to better understand how communication should flow and will result in precise deliverance of ideas and suggestions that they might have to improve workflow.

 In failing to ensure that workers feel understood, there will be drop in the quality of work and a higher turnover rate, which will ultimately result in losses for the company. As a leader, it thus becomes my responsibility to ensure a safe and effective workplace environment.

Submission 1: Formal Letter

  Dear Professor Blackstone, My name is Lutfur Rahman, a student in your MEC1281-T6 effective communication class. I am writing this letter as a way to introduce myself to you and my fellow classmates. I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic, class of 2018, with a diploma in Aeronautical and Aerospace Technology. To be honest, becoming a mechanical engineer was not my first choice; I've always preferred civil engineering. My love with engineering derives from a lifelong need to understand how things function and why certain things are made the way they are. I used to like playing games that required me to construct bridges and other structures as a kid, and I believe this is the primary reason I chose to study engineering. One communication quality I feel I possess is the ability to listen to what people are trying to say and comprehend and aid them in getting their message through to others. This capacity has helped me perform successfully during my National Service. However,

Critical Reflection

 As someone who has experienced their fair share of critical thinking and effective communication classes and seminars from my school life, I did not have high expectations entering into this module and was just expecting another run-of-the-mill experience of a communication module. However, looking back at my experiences from the semester, this has been the most hands on and engaging module I have ever had. At the start of the semester, I had hoped to achieve being able to work more effectively in team settings, offering better assistance to my team mates when required and also being able to produce reports that are of a higher quality. Through the use of several critical thinking models, such as the 6 steps for effective critical thinking, as theorised by Dr Rafiq Elmansy, as well as the Paul-Elder critical thinking framework, I have been able to upgrade my train of thought and that has allowed me to better play a role as a team member in all my projects throughout the semester.

Summary Reader Response- Final

 The article “Where’s My Supersuit?” Zelik (2019) writes about recent developments that have been made in the world of wearable exoskeletons, or “supersuits”. Early exoskeletons had been created to assist the elderlies, the physically impaired and jobs that are physically intensive. The article introduces an improved version that can be toggleable with a switch. It utilizes springs and assistive fabric elastic bands, woven into a cloth-based material. The improved supersuit solves the issues of its predecessors by allowing it to be worn for longer periods of time without wearing out the user. From my point of view, current exoskeletons are limited in terms of their practicality and comfort. With future developments in exoskeletons to allow for a wider range of applications, trackers to monitor muscle activity for labour workers and developmental parts for stroke patients, they will further enhance the lives of many.  Latest developments in exoskeletons have allowed for greater adaptati
