Description of NASA's Perseverance Rover mobility system  1. Darren had an interest in NASA and the recent mars rover landing back in 2020 .   2. Victoria and Darren went to NASA ’s webpage to find out more on what was a viable topic to discuss.   3. Victoria prompted ChatGPT, a generative AI on: "An overview on NASA ’s Perseverance rover wheels .”    4. Results given are as follows:   Design and structure.   Material .   Number of wheels .   Wheel diameter and width .   Traction and grousers . Damage and wear.   5. Further research was done on NASA’s webpage .   6. Obtained information from other websites on product specifications.  

Dear Professor Blackstone,  I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Victoria, currently in my first year studying Mechanical Design & Manufacturing Engineering at SIT. I am writing to you to share some insights about myself. I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic with a diploma in electronic systems. Through my diploma modules from polytechnic such as automation systems and mechanics, it sparked my interest in engineering which inspired me to further my career in the industry.  A communication strength I possess is active listening when interacting with others. As someone whom my friends would always approach when in need, I would give them my full attention when they speak before giving feedback. This allowed me to understand their situation before helping them and also build better relationships with the people I met. However, I do have a specific area of weakness, which is my public speaking skills. I faced challenges such as speaking too fast which led to my mind blanking o

“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) This statement interprets that communication skills play a pivotal role in both education and career. In education context, these skills help students understand complex engineering concepts by enabling them to articulate their thoughts clearly and engage effectively with their peers. Furthermore, in the professional world, teamwork and interacting with people from diverse backgrounds are required in projects. Strong communication skills are crucial for effectively conveying ideas, discussing plans, and resolving conflicts in these collaborative settings. Therefore, integrating communication skills into the education of engineering students not only enhances their learning experience but
