The "Steven" Dossier [DECLASSIFIED]

Chronological Order 1. Steven watched YouTube videos of the Overture aircraft to better understand the intended purpose and future expectations of the aircraft. 2. Steven visited the website of the Manufacturer (Boom Supersonic) to find the functional specifications of the aircraft. 3. Brenda used open Google search and gathered information from the company website and Wikipedia to find the features of the aircraft that allowed it to perform at its functional specifications. 4. Steven utilized a gAI (Concensus) to find research papers on how the overture's design profile allows the aircraft to achieve its top speed. Prompt:  Provide resources that can explain how the design profile of an aircraft can allow it to fly at supersonic speeds.

  Subject: Introduction and Aspirations for UCS1001-Critical Thinking and Communicating   Dear Professor Blackstone,   I hope this letter finds you well, my name is Steven Wee, and I am writing to formerly introduce myself as a student in your module on Critical Thinking and Communicating. My journey in Engineering began in Polytechnic with an passion for cars and the automotive industry. Throughout my course of study in Polytechnique, my passion had evolved and sooner or later, it had evolved to one for Arms Manufacturing during my time in National Service after my graduation from Polytechnique.   However, despite the change in interest, there were some notable strengths that I had developed during my course of study, that being the ability in communicating thoughts and other ideas. This skill proved effective, especially when undertaking engineering projects or other group projects. However, I must admit that this focus on factual communication often leads me to ov...

“I contend that we (engineers) are undervalued because of our widespread inability to explain what we do to the general public (and why it is so important). It is one of the hardest goals to accomplish, to be able to boil down difficult concepts into a short and easily understood presentation or elevator pitch.” Marybeth Miceli, President, Miceli Infrastructure Consulting, USA (2011) This short paragraph expresses the viewpoint of an engineer, where she thinks that this widespread inability to effectively communicate the nature and significance of engineering work to the general public is the key factor contributing to the undervalued of engineers, as it is challenging to break down complex concepts into a concise and easily comprehensible presentation or elevator pitch for people who do not have an engineering background.
