Product Description Summary (Draft 1)


BlueSG is Singapore's 100% electric self-service car sharing operator which provides environmentally-friendly Electric Vehicles (EV). They offer point-to-point service and can be returned at any of their stations located islandwide, where the parking lots can be reserved in advance through the app. The key functionality of this service is the operation of Lithium Metal Polymer (LMP) which does not contribute to environmental pollution and consumes zero petrol or diesel.

 The EVs have an on-board computer that transmits information about the vehicle, interfaces with the BlueSG operating system for navigation which has the ability to track the locations of the cars including the charging points and parking lots. This function not only enhances usability but also enables BlueSG personnels to identify the cars immediately should there be any accident or emergency occurrences which in turn acts as a measure for maintenance and identify users who misuse the EVs.

Packed with high-tech features, users are able to drive conveniently. As the first electric car sharing service in Singapore, BlueSG is environmentally-friendly as compared to other car sharing operators, due to its ability to let users drive worry-free about the excess mileage and hence, BlueSG should be users' primary choice in car sharing.

    Dear Quan,

    Thank you for your detailed and concise summary on BlueSG. We feel that your content was very clear and well-organised, however there are a few points that we would like to touch on.

    Firstly, you mentioned "The key functionality of this service is the operation of Lithium Metal Polymer (LMP)" however we felt that while this is one of the functions that BlueSG provides, but its not the key function of this car sharing system.

    In addition, you mentioned " BlueSG personnels" however personnel is already in plural form. You can refer to (https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/the-plural-of/personnel.html) to learn more about it.

    Next, you wrote "ability to track the locations of the cars including the charging points and parking lots" , however there should be a comma after locations of the cars, since "including the charging points and parking lots" is additional information.

    Also, "Packed with high-tech features, users are able to drive conveniently" is a slightly awkward sentence as there's no direct link between the high-tech features and driving conveniently. Perhaps you could establish the link by explaining how these features make the driving experience more convenient.

    Furthermore, "BlueSG is environmentally-friendly as compared to other car sharing operators" can be written as BlueSG is environmentally-friendl(ier) than other car sharing operators to make your summary more concise.

    Lastly, we feel that the last sentence in your summary lacks logical flow.
    " As the first electric car sharing service in Singapore, BlueSG is environmentally-friendly as compared to other car sharing operators, due to its ability to let users drive worry-free about the excess mileage"
    > how does being environmentally friendlier allow users to drive worry-free about the excess mileage? environment or cost concerns?
    "As the first electric car sharing service in Singapore, BlueSG is environmentally-friendly as compared to other car sharing operators, due to its ability to let users drive worry-free about the excess mileage and hence, BlueSG should be users' primary choice in car sharing. "
    >How do all these points make BlueSG the primary choice? comparative advantage?

    On the other hand, you have good organisation and planning of your sentence structures and this makes your content easy to read and understand.

    Cheers,
    Kai Wei and Jun Hui

Reflection for TLM 1010

 It's a wrap!  Over the course of weeks being in this class, I have undoubtedly gained a deeper understanding in effective communication and writing skills. It is through the contribution of my classmates’ as well as Professor Brad’s constructive feedbacks which made my learning much more enriching by allowing me to see certain mistakes I may not have known if not for the feedbacks. By which I believe that the various assignments and in-class works have aid my classmates and I to become more effective and proficient in both written and verbal skills. At the start of this module, I set goals for myself to develop my written and verbal communication skills as well as to be more spontaneous in speaking to new people with an optimistic mindset. In class, we were actively given opportunities to speak and to work in different groups to accomplish each task, whether it is an assignment or in-class work. I feel that such method of teaching not only gives every student an opportunity
