    Thanks much, Kai Xiang, for the details on your contributions. You mention coming up with issues with AI. Which issues? And was your secondary research done using AI, or did you do a Google Scholar to search as well?

      Dear Professor Blackstone, we used chatGPT to get an idea of what issues smartwatch users may face.

This is our primary research. For our secondary research, we came up with solutions and used google to find out if they are doable.

Long story short, I want to be able to make something like that in the future. That is my reason for joining  mechanical engineering, to gain the fundamental skills to design and m

Interpretation of quote

“While all engineers should have good communication skills, global engineers face additional challenges, making effective communication an imperative.” Debra Kraft, Careers Content Writer, Demand Media (2016) My interpretation of this quote is that for efficient and effective work to be done, communication is key. Especially in a globalised world, where people from all walks of life with different language and culture can participate in a project, the ability to communicate well is all the more important.  One example of this is when working with someone from China who can only speak in Chinese as someone who can only speak and write English. People in their home county will be more used to using their country's own system and language.  Even with programmes like google translate to assist in conveying meaning, the result of the translation will never as good as being able to understand the other person directly.
