Current program: Chemical Engineering
Year: 3rd Year 1st Semester
Briefly about me, I'm the first of 5 siblings, the 'kak long' to 3 brothers and my baby sister. Despite being born and grew up solely in KL and Putrajaya, I have a little bit of every dialect in my speech (like literally). I speak a little Korean (an avid fan of their culture and language, I must say).
UTP wasn't really my first choice of school, since I was always wanted to do TESL. So I'm struggling in every semester trying to keep my sanity right :p
But I'm here, so I'll just do my best and graduate.

ROLE
As for my role in this group, I believe I am the recorder. I record data, strategies, problems and every other issue we have throughout the journey as a group. Of course, when it comes to discussing, I participate, not just recording.
REFLECTION OF COURSES
KINETICS AND REACTOR DESIGN
I'm liking this course so far. Dr Suzana's approach (that is compulsory exercise after every class) has been really helpful. I was in Dr Suzana's class last two semesters (for Separation Processes) and the way she conducted the class that time was not really a bliss. Her pace was so fast that I could not keep up. But now, I'm enjoying her class a lot better, and of course I understand better.
CHEMICAL PROCESS DYNAMICS, INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL
I'm loving the maths in this course! I truthfully am not a fan of other chemical engineering subjects as much I am for maths subjects (Ordinary Differential Equation, Calculus, etc). So when I finally got reunited with Laplace transform and what not, I get ecstatic. But still, I have to get fired up for the rest of the course!
PROCESS SAFETY AND LOSS PREVENTION
An advanced version of Health, Safety and Environment, they said. It's a lot harder, they never said. Dr Dzul has been very kind to print out the lecture slides for us, and also provides us with exercises after every class. Maybe he's a little too speedy at times, but so far, everything is still tolerable.

REFLECTION OF THE BOARD GAME
Well, if I were to be honest, I am still questioning, who on Earth would want to play games based on reactors, right? But since the challenge (the project) is different from any other projects I've had throughout my studies in UTP, this is actually very fun. When I was choosing the questions to include in the game, it was amusing to choose hard question (imagining the players having a hard time to answer them). Of course easy questions are there too, I ain't Hitler :p
I really cannot wait to see the fruit of our hard time and major brainstorming sessions becomes a reality. Till the day the board is right in front of us all, please anticipate it!

reflection of questions
KINETICS AND REACTOR DESIGN
Farhan, Hafiz and I are in charge to create question for this part. We focus more on the understanding and calculation instead of theory. For example, in my part (Chapter 3: Rate Law and Stoichiometry), the questions really require the players to understand how to form a stoichiometric table to further solve the questions.
CHEMICAL PROCESS DYNAMICS, INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL
For this course, EeHuey and Arthur are assigned to create the questions. Instead of calculation, they focus on more theoretical parts of the course, with some derivation to train the player with more comprehensive questions. Although creating simpler questions, they are still of a certain level of difficulty to ensure a thorough understanding of the course.
PROCESS SAFETY AND LOSS PREVENTION
Since KRD and CPDIC are already on the hard part of the game, PSLP questions are quite a darling. Farhan and Hafiz are again in charge to create questions for this course. Focusing more on the definitions and the theoretical part, I personally think it is a good practice for the players since in class, our lecturer already stresses out very much on the calculation part.

REFLECTION OF THE SECOND PROJECT
First of all, the project really fulfilled the name of engineering students of UTP. It was beyond average and challenging. We did a lot research to choose one technology that fits the problem best. It gave a lot of exposure on the real life situation in a plant. This project was the perfect stage for us to apply what we have learned throughout the semester.
In the aspect of teamwork, again, my group members are the best! We divided the tasks and when I faced a difficulty at any point of time, they were such a help.

REFLECTION OF COURSES
KINETICS AND REACTOR DESIGN
I don't know whether it is because Dr Tazli's approach of teaching and learning, but the syllabus of the second half of the semester appeared to be more bearable. I really like the fact that prior to every class, Dr Tazli prepared us a few notes and videos to induce our ability to self-learn. This then allow us to have more exercises during class instead of just having theories taught.
CHEMICAL PROCESS DYNAMICS, INSTRUMENTATION AND CONTROL
The first half was a ride through a very very bumpy road. Dr Haslinda however, made it seems a little easier to digest. The topics were not as challenging as the earlier ones. Probably because I went through the basics first (in the first half) before Dr Haslinda's part. I like the second half of the semester as it focused more on the application of instrumentation instead of just theory. We have learned on frequency analysis (amplitude ratio and phase angle), types of valve, piping instrumentation and a few more.
PROCESS SAFETY AND LOSS PREVENTION
With Dr Dzulkarnain, the class never got boring. Again, exercises (or he called it assignments) on the topic learned in every class really helped us to get more familiar with types of questions that will be asked in the final examination. I still think he is a little too fast sometimes, but because of the exercises given, it was easy for me to catch up.
