Since these few weeks we were quite busy with assignments, projects and attending classes, I forgot to update the blog. Plus, we're still working on the working model....Nothing much to say coz the fabrication of the prototype is in progress. Most of the equipments have been bought and borrowed from the College of Engineering's lab.
For the microhydro project, the team managed to finish the analysis. They're now doing the report.
It's about one month left and we already started panicking. Lets hope everything goes smoothly!!! :-)
Week 6 & 7 (14 - 27 December 2009)
Week 5 (7 - 13 December 2009)
We are still working on the design of the working model. especially on the electrical parts. Some modifications are made.
We have also done some research through journals and books as the preparation for the written report which also need to be submitted.
Analysis for Challenge 3 is also in progress.
Not much to say.....Wait for the next week entry!
Week 4 (30 November - 6 December)
We just came back from the Challenge for Change Refresh Session! But not all of us went to the session. Only Cha, Hanif, Onny and Aini. The rest had to do the add-and-drop subjects since we already started our classes this week.
The refresh session gave us a clearer understanding of the judgement criteria, DIGI as a telecommunication service provider, the climate change issues, and etc.
Thanx to DIGI for giving all the information which can be used not only for the competition but also for our future.
Updates on the progress of the project:
1. We had a discussion with the mentors during the Refresh Session. It was great since more and more ideas were obtained during that session.
2. We bought one of the equipments used for the working model from a company which is located in the US. It was kinda difficult to find the equipment in Malaysia. But actually we ordered it from a friend of mine who's staying there. She'll be in Malaysia in 2 weeks time. That means we can save the shipping cost to Malaysia. :) That's important since money is one of the issue in this competition. The more we can save is the better.
3. Some modifications have been made to the design.
Not to forget about the presentation which will be held on February 2010. We will be the last group to present. *** No. 6*** It is good or not?? We'll see.... (^_^)
