New advisor, Group member & Presentations

Progress report.. It is interesting how radically things change, new advisory, more than 2 members in a group and now we have to present ourselves. Interesting how much has changed, with Anura reluctantly at first wanting to be an advisory with his scheduled being tight, i will try not to bother him. I cracked a joke in presentation that he thought i was being serious and thought he would throw me under a bus. But all is good, wouldn't ask for a better tutor than the man himself as he knows what hes talking about, and enjoyed his suspension class room top notch _b

Blogging at last..

Since technology project classes started, ill be honest i haven't really taken the time to blog. I don't preferably enjoy blogging, however it is a course requirement. :) So i will be keeping blogs of my progression of my current technology project at unitec. Previously over about 12 or so weeks i have missed updates, so from then to now in a short summary includes not having much direction in our project at all. Our group started with me and Shervyn Borges contemplating ideas which we could reinvent and innovate into something creative. We then got another group member Harbi (Mohammed Abdullah H Alharbi) from where his group split as Shepard left for Australia with his wife, who was a good friend of ours. So now we have a group of three, and split the work accordingly. Our project idea is a good one, we are able to pursue separate ideas that conveniently combine together to create a synergies project. We decided to create a water collection and purifier unit that we can use as super steam for cooking. The main particular idea is to use wasted heat energy into a resource without disrupting any of the vital temperatures that the vehicle needs to operate in. We are also utilizing the Peltier effect to conduct electricity through thermal exchange. We have a new supervisor as our old tutor also left from Australia which left us in the ditch for quiet some time, but we managed without one, and we now have a great tutor that supports our idea, and creative thinking processes. Our hour today with Anura Bakmeedeniya really helped us in terms of direction and has given our group a stronger work ethic and a greater sense of what we have to do. Our attitude has a positive light, even though negative aspects did surround our first half the year. Despite the past of "Light Pedaling" our group is now making a push to research in the interest of our project to create a interesting presentation last down the track. Chris.

Huh?

I am totally off track and the whole tutor student relationship, feel as if they do not care, just being honest.. I am totally unmotivated, shervyn and I are a bit disappointed and finding out tracks will be hard as we have no supervisor, and other tutors do not have time.
