Interpretation of quotation

 “Employers identify communication as one of the basic competencies every

graduate should have, asserting that the ability to communicate is valuable for

obtaining employment and maintaining successful job performance.”

Sherwyn Morreale, Michael Osborn & Judy Pearson,

Professors of Communication (2000)


In the workplace, communication is utilized daily, from receiving instructions from bosses, working together with teammates and colleagues to dealing with clients. The ability to convey your message across clearly and concisely is essential to prevent miscommunication and to ensure that your message is delivered correctly to the other person. This, in turn, ensures consistent and outstanding work performance.

Communication is important during job interviews with potential employers as it provides them with a good initial impression, and shows them what you are capable of. Being able to effectively communicate across your knowledge and potential is essential to convincing the interviewer that you are the right person for the job.

    I agree with what you have said. Communication is important in everyday working life. In fact you are trying to say that communication is the foundation in any job which you are absolutory right about. Even at the very start during your interview communication plays a big part on it.

Formal Introductive letter to professor

 Dear Professor Blackstone, I am writing this introductory letter to you in hopes that you can get to know be better. My name is Hendrick Yip Jun Heng, and I am a mechanical engineering undergraduate student studying at Singapore Institute of Technology(SIT). I previously graduated from Singapore Polytechnic(SP) with a diploma in mechatronics and robotics. This is in line with my passion, that is robotics and programming. My interest in robots, specifically automated vehicles, was developed from a young age when I attended many extra-curricular classes on basic programming and robotics during the school holidays. During those courses, I was exposed to building my own robots and learned multiple programming languages such as Python and C++ to control them. I hence decided to pursue an education and future career in robotics engineering. One part of communication that I feel I am strong at is that I am able to work well with unfamiliar faces should the need arise. For example, during our

Critical reflection (Module and project learning)

 Module Learning During the first few lessons of this module, I admit that there were many instances where I questioned its usefulness and relevancy, especially because during the first few weeks, the workload for this module was way higher and more fast paced than my other core modules. I remember asking myself on multiple occasions why is writing a reader response or writing an introductory email to my professor even useful for an engineering student. However, I told myself to just go with the flow and do my best regardless as my GPA was on the line. And to my surprise, I found out that with each and every class I attended, there was without a doubt something to take away. Whether it was a way to improve on my writing skills, or how to give a good presentation. I realized how important this module actually was, and that there will always be things so learn and improve on, especially when it came to communication.  One of the most important parts of this module is writing formal repor
