Problem / Objective
I had to write three assignment pieces on electric vehicles. One to do with Power and Drive systems used Electric and Hybrid Vehicles, second one was to do with Electric and Hybrid Vehicle Motor types, Construction and manufacturing equipment.
Investigation / Design Process
This was the first year the college had done this unit so I had to do my own independent research and find credible references to increase my understanding of the unit but also to support my assignments. As one of the conditions of the assignments is we have to assume the person reading our assignments have no understanding of how the systems work.
Engineering Decisions
After doing the research and learning content in lectures I had to write up assignments. This meant I needed to have good time management as these assignments had deadlines that needed to be stuck to.
Engineering Learning
This taught me how to present my work to people who may not understand every aspect of the assignment. This allowed me to know how to present my work to people with all ranges of knowledge.
