Image
The Garmin Venu 3S is a compact yet feature-packed smartwatch designed for health and fitness enthusiasts (Ullman, 2023). According from the same source one of its standout features is sleep tracking, which offers personalised sleep coaching to provide users with insights based on their sleep data, helping to improve recovery and daily health routines. The watch also delivers detailed morning reports that summarise key information from the user's sleep, providing further guidance for optimising rest and recovery (Song, 2023).   Another notable feature is the wheelchair mode, allowing users in wheelchairs to track their pushes and receive personalised activity insights, making the device more inclusive (Ullman, 2023). The ECG function is another health-centric tool, allowing users to monitor heart health and detect conditions like atrial fibrillation (AFib) (Rusen, 2023). Additionally, stress tracking, HRV monitoring, and respiration tracking enhance the Venu 3S's capabilities ...

Self-Introduction Letter

Dear Professor Blackstone, My name is Nurliza, and I am a student in your Critical Thinking & Communication class at SIT, where I am studying Mechanical Engineering. Before this, I graduated from Singapore Polytechnic with a diploma in mechatronics and robotics engineering. My interest in engineering began when I was a child. My father often bought me lego sets, which sparked my curiosity about how things work. I spent a lot of time building structures and solving puzzles, which helped me develop a passion for creating and solving problems. This early interest in designing and building things led me to study mechatronics and robotic engineering. I was excited by the idea of combining electronics, mechanics, and computer systems to create functional robots and other devices. It seemed like a perfect fit for my love of hands-on projects and technology. However, during my time at Polytechnic, I discovered that I was more interested in the mechanical aspects of engineering. One proj...

THE IMPORTANCE OF COMMUNICATION FOR ENGINEERS

“Communication skills are an essential component in the education of engineering students to facilitate not just students’ education but also to prepare them for their future careers.” -- Marc Riemer, Faculty of Engineering, Monash University (2007). Marc Riemer emphasizes that communication skills are crucial for engineering students not only to enhance their learning experience but also to prepare them for their future careers. As engineers, it's not enough to just develop innovative solutions; you must also effectively communicate your ideas and the benefits of your inventions to users, stakeholders, or the public. Good communication helps ensure that your work is understood, valued, and applied, ultimately maximizing its impact and utility. Thus, strong communication skills are integral to both the educational process and professional success in engineering. This explanation ties together the importance of communication in both the learning process and its application in real-w...
