Hello!

 Welcome to my blog! 

My name is Miguel and this website contains my learning journey throughout the semester for the module, Chemical Product Design & Development, a continuation to where we left off last semester and the midpoint before my Capstone Project.

My goals and strategies are as follows:

- I wish to hone my CAD skills in Fusion360. This may include new and old tools that I've used from last semester. One way of honing is to follow video tutorials online to apply onto my CPDD designs. Another may be to set aside time to try out other CAD creations through instructions, and gain knowledge from there. Through honing, I wish to be able to create more intricate and effective CAD designs.

- I hope to improve my practical thinking during lesson. This is a soft skill that I think would benefit me the most as being adaptive would prove useful for the working world or during projects. One way is to discuss with the team how we want to delegate work and whether one needs more help than another. When faced with a hurdle, I hope to step up and provide a clear and effective strategy so that we are not stuck in one place for too long.

To know whether I've accomplished my goal, by the end of the semester, I can showcase my CAD skills through a design that I am proud of. 

As for practical thinking, I could showcase that through fully understanding the strengths and weaknesses of my teammates and myself and working around them to create a masterful prototype by the end of the semester.

My group has also created a number of ground rules to follow, and are described below:

- Complete the task on time, be timely when we have meetings.

- When required, schedule a date and time to meet, where everyone can agree to appear. 

- Communicate any problems regarding meeting times or, during meetings, discussed ideas.

- During meetings, respect each other's opinion and give ample time for one to speak for themselves.

Well, that's all for me! Look forward to weekly postings :D
