This progress report is prepared for the research on the Laboratory practices (technical
skills) helps in working field (industrial training) among FKMP students of UTHM.

The purpose of preparing the progress report is to list out the work to be done, work in
progression and work completed clearly in a written form.

Besides, the report is also being prepared to ensure that the progression of the research is
running according to the planned schedule.

The purpose of laboratory work is to study how an experiment will be conducted and how
something will actually behave in certain condition.
Both analysis and laboratory work are critical aspects of engineering design in terms of
supplement for analysis.

Laboratory work may reveal faulty assumptions that not identified during analysis and it
can identify the strengths or weaknesses overlooked in it.

Students can also identify the properties and performance of materials, components and
systems through laboratory experiments.

Laboratory practices (technical skills) helps in industrial training among FKMP students of
UTHM.

To identity the laboratory practices (skills) that interrelated in industrial training and
working field.

To create awareness among FKMP students about skills or knowledge that will be applied
during industrial training.

The progress report is written in task line form.

First of all, we will list out the work completed in this progress report.

Secondly, we will state the work in progress.

Thirdly, we will discuss about the work to be done so that the research can be conducted
in sequence.

Besides, we will also discuss about the problems that encountered throughout the research.

Work Completed

We were being told to conduct a research as an assignment for the course technical
writing (UWB20302) during the lecture.

We come out with few ideas and discuss with our lecturer

Finally we choose the topic Laboratory practices (technical skills) helps in working field
(industrial training) among FKMP students of UTHM.

Once the topic being approved, we started to prepare the proposal and the questionnaire
for the research. A meeting was conducted to discuss about the preparation on proposal. Jobs
were divided among group members. The first draft of proposal and questionnaire were
showed to our lecturer.

Basically, the proposal and questionnaire were nicely constructed however there were
some corrections to be done. The complete proposal and questionnaire were sent to the
lecturer via schoology.

Work in Progress

We currently working on distributing the questionnaire to all the FKMP respondents
through online method.

A total number of 35 respondents from Mechanical Faculty (FKMP) are selected to fill in the
questionnaire.

After distributing the questionnaire, we collect back the questionnaire from the
respondents.

Most of the students answered the questionnaire through online.

Work to be Done

The works yet to be done are mainly about analysis, discussion and conclusion for the
research.

The questions are sectioned; each section contains a set of questions.

Each set of questions is related to certain point of study.

Thus, the analysis will be systematically done according to the questions answered.

From the data analysed, we can come out with findings and discussion by evaluating the
students responds toward the issues on habits going back to hometown weekly among UTHM
students.

We will come out with a conclusion by summarising the content of the research and
recommendation by providing ideas or suggestions on the issues studied.

We will do a presentation of the report to explain the purpose of doing the research, to
elaborate what had been done throughout the research and to show the final outcomes of our
research and submit it on time.

We were facing difficulties in selecting the suitable research title. We come out with some
ideas and after some discussion with our lecturer, we found that some ideas were not suitable
to study as a research and some of them were lack of interest to study on.

Eventually, we choose the Laboratory practices (technical skills) helps in working field
(industrial training) among FKMP students of UTHM because it related to our field. Then, we
faced problems when working on the proposal and questionnaire. For example, the content of
the proposal was not clearly stated. These mistakes had been corrected after being checked by
our lecturer.

Currently, we are working with the questionnaire. The problem faced is that the number of
students in FKMP that are done with their industrial training are more than the number of
students have not start their industrial training. We had some problem in choosing the
correct respondent for our research.

The problem that we predict will be faced in the coming time is the insufficient of time to
carry out the research. Hence, we will divide the tasks among ourselves and make sure that
each of us is doing their own part on time. Some of the tasks can be combined to do it
simultaneously.

Based on the process that will be done soon, we can interpret and look into several problem
related to the issues on the Laboratory practices (technical skills) helps in working field
(industrial training) among FKMP students of UTHM. The research might be helpful in
analysing our own perspective the Laboratory practices (technical skills) helps in working
field (industrial training) among FKMP students of UTHM, arising the awareness on the
importance of the skills learned in laboratory practice, evaluating how does the habits affect
the universitys reputation and accessing how does the habits effect the students future job
situation.
