Summary Draft 1: 3D Modelling


In the article “3D building models help bring sustainability into construction”, Jenkins (2015) claims that Building information modelling (BIM) has adverse possibilities in replacing traditional 2D drawings. BIM creates a 3D model of the actual building and runs computer stimulation that is capable of countering imminent errors and calculations before the construction of building. However, BIM is still not globally used due to the preference of traditional approaches of building construction over the use of advance technology.

Critical Reflection

One of the goals I have set for myself in this module is to improve my oral presentation skills by overcoming my fear to speak in front of a huge crowd. Due to the lack of practice, I lost the opportunity to present my best and smoothly delivery the content I had intended to. A good presentation requires constant effort to practice. However, I was held up with other assignments and projects which left minimal time for me to work on my presentation.

Analytical Reflection on Oral Presentation

Oral presentation has always been a challenge as nervousness has always been a major problem for me whenever I am speaking in front of a crowd. Hence, before the actual presentation, I had several practices with my team members beforehand to overcome my problem. During the rehearsals, I felt that I was able to articulate my ideas and speak fluently in front of my team members.

Thus, I received many negative feedback, one of which I was told that my presentation was not in line with my report and my ideas were not delivered smoothly. However, I was complimented for engaging the audience as well as maintaining a good posture during the presentation. With the experience and feedback, I realized to improve my presentation I will have to overcome my fear of speaking in front of a huge crowd. This can be solved with practices and experiences gained over time and...
