Week 4

Was suppose to go to the workshop that we have set to do our assignment on this week. However, we didn't manage to do so due to our time management and planning. I guess we have to postponed it to next week. However, this week wasn't all that bad. Had an interesting class with Mr. Niranjan today. He showed us a video of an advertisement about the new Volkswagen Amarok and asked us one question, "what is wrong with the video?". No one could see what he was trying to show until he explained it to us. He explained that the guy in the advertisement said "speed" instead of "velocity" which was the correct word to use during that time. It might be the other way around? I'm not sure, but i'm definitely sure it had something to do with the those words. Alright, i guess that's it for me.

P/S: Here is the video and link to the advertisement that Mr. Niranjan showed us about the Volkswagen Amarok. Enjoy :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eGlcPDUvQQ

Week 3

Didn't do much in today's class. Mr. Niranjan came in and we had a chat about life in Auckland, New Zealand. Once again Mr. Niranjan always shocks us with his stories and they are true stories by the way. Moving on, we discussed about the assessment a bit more. This time with extra more details for the questions that we didn't know and etc. I also found out that we needed to send him a proposal for our assessment 1. Guess it was my fault for not reading the assessment package properly. However, no point complaining about it. So yea..settled my proposal and sent it off to Mr. Niranjan, hope everything will be fine tho. Other than that..we didn't do much in class. It was a nice short discussion class. Eventho is was short we still manage to get a lot of information from that class & also an early start to out weekends! But of course..Dheenesh and i have planned to go visit a workshop somewhere this week to get all out informations and etc. Let's see how that goes and i'll be keeping you guys updated on that. Well..i guess that's it for this post. Guten Nacht!

P/S: Forgot to mention that Mr. Niranjan also showed us some of the previous student;s work during Week 2. It was really nice of him to do so and i roughly got an idea how to do the assessment. I think? i guess we'll just have to see. Thank you Mr. Niranjan for the preview!

Ok! now i'm off!

Week 2

2nd Automotive Professional Practice class. The first thing i saw when Mr. Niranjan Singh came in was a stack of papers. As i suspected..it was the assessment package. Of course as a normal student..wasn't too happy to see it but those things are going to come sooner or later. We talked about the assessment package in full detail. We talked things like "what's the assessment about? how do you do it? what's the main reason?" and etc. So i got the picture what's the assessment is all about and first thing that popped in my head was.."this is not going to be easy". But of course i will try my very best to complete this assessment and pass it with flying colours. Once everything was sorted out, next was to sort the groups for assessment 1. Got my partner and he goes by the name Dheenesh. I believe we can accomplish a lot for this assessment. We'll see how it goes and i will keep on updating about the assessment process. Anyway, i believe that's all for now.

P/S: Still haven't solve the question that Mr. Niranjan gave us.

End.

Week 1

So, the first day of Automotive Professional Practice class. Met my lecturer for this course and he goes by the name Niranjan Singh. A very fun, relax, positive and all the good things you can think of kind of guy. That is awesome! Since it's the first day, we just introduce ourselves to each other. Kind of like a ice breaking session. Got to know some new people along they way which is a plus for me. Even got to know Mr. Niranjan Singh better and his stories gave me a shock. After we're done with introducing each other, Mr. Niranjan Singh explain to us about what is the entire course all about. Along the way he also thought us how to have a "critical thinking" mindset by showing us an ad by Volkswagen. Slowly starting to understand what is "critical thinking" all about. Also asked us how to change 1$ into 100 cents by using a mathematical method. Was a blur for me. So..that's all i have to say about the first week of Automotive Professional Practice. Stay tune for more.
