Project 1. CanSat (2022)
The CanSat project revolves around the fascinating goal of launching a satellite into space using a can. We meticulously planned every aspect of this ambitious undertaking, considering various approaches and strategies to ensure its success.
As part of our preparations, we even created a prototype of a CanSat. This hands-on experience allowed us to gain practical insights into the challenges and intricacies involved in building a satellite within the constraints of a can. Our findings and progress were diligently documented, and I will provide a link to the comprehensive document below for further reference. Throughout the CanSat project, I focused on developing my empathy skills. Prior to this project, I tended to make decisions based solely on my own perspectives, believing that my approach was inherently the best. However, this project provided me with a valuable opportunity to learn the importance of listening to others and considering their viewpoints. By actively practicing empathy, I became more adept at understanding and valuing the opinions and ideas of my teammates. This newfound skill in empathy will undoubtedly prove invaluable in my future endeavors, particularly in leadership positions such as that of a supervisor. The ability to empathize with others, to truly listen and comprehend their thoughts and emotions, is a fundamental aspect of effective leadership. By incorporating empathy into my approach, I can foster a collaborative and inclusive environment where everyone's contributions are respected and valued. In conclusion, the CanSat project was an exceptional learning experience for me. It allowed me to explore the remarkable concept of launching a satellite using a can, while also emphasizing the importance of empathy in teamwork and leadership. I am grateful for the opportunity to have participated in this project, as it has equipped me with valuable skills and knowledge that will undoubtedly benefit me in my future endeavors. |
