Throughout their studies students in the Department of Electronic & Electrical Engineering develop their skills and knowledge working on projects. In their second year all students take part in our mouse race competition. The challenge is to design, build and test an automated guided vehicle (known as a mouse) to follow a set route in the fastest time. Working in teams, students must prepare a design that is both fast and reliable; too much speed and the mouse will leave the circuit, too little speed and the mouse will not win.

Joshua was part of a team of three and their first decision was whether to build an analogue or digital mouse: “We chose to design an analogue mouse because we thought we would learn more from the experience. A digital system would have involved less components and so reduce the weight. This would have given us a faster mouse from the beginning, but we wanted to work on something that would really make us think as a group.”

Joshua’s mouse contained a sensor to detect an electric current running through the centre of the 20m track. It navigated ascending and descending ramps and bends to finish the course in 14.34 seconds (a top 10 finish).

The best part of the project for Joshua was working as part of a team: “I really enjoyed exploring my strengths and skillsets, while learning from my team members. It was really interesting to work with people who have different personalities. Respecting the views of others and reasoning with differing opinions to come to a conclusion helped me to see the bigger picture.”

The project is also an opportunity to develop a range of hard and soft skills: “Working on the project gave me an insight into the professional world: the art of liaising with technical and non-technical professionals. This has helped my communication skills. I learnt a lot about time management, planning and goal setting, as well as practical elements like soldering.”

About CECILY

My passion is to inspire and empower women and young people succeed by supporting them focus on what matters to them. I support them build and expand their capacity to develop skills, knowledge and positive attitudes that enable them fulfill their potential to not only benefit themselves but also their families and the communities in which they live in. I do this by organizing workshops/trainings, conferences, 1to 1 meetings and even recommending useful books to read as well writing books.

You may not want to build an empire like many men and women have but I just know every woman wants that extra-ordinary life built around their values, their freedom and their families. I have published five books and a number of articles in different topics including women: Health & Wealth; Effective networking; Happy relationship dilemma; Financial well-being.

On a more personal note, I am happily married with two children and I have first hand experience of balancing family, education, work, career and community work. My personal time is special to me, especially spending quality time with my family and my ‘’alone’’ time to recharge my batteries. I take pleasure in networking, travelling, reading and writing.

My professional background, being bilingual (English, Swahili and Kikuyu) and having seen a need and value to empower women and young people, I did a degree in Women Studies after leaving my teaching career. I took another degree in Substance Use and Misuse and a Masters in Public Health and Health Promotion. I have done a number of professional studies including Equality & Diversity, Chartered Management, Project Management. My eight years experience working with women and men who have gone through the Оrlando web designCriminal Justice System and struggling with substance use & misuse gave me an insight of how life’s issues can be challenging and how important social networks and family are in dealing with them. This greatly motivated me to founding the ‘’UTULIVU’’ Organisation which in 2011 got the Queens Award for voluntary service among other seven organisations in Berkshire UK.This earned me the opportunity of being invited to Burkingham Palace for tea with the Queen at her annual Tea Garden Party and to celebrate her Golden Jubilee the following year.This was a life changing experience.

Having migrated from Kenya to UK, I just know how important social networks are in achieving /fulfilling your potential without fire fighting or making obvious mistakes because you don’t know how. Social network has definitely worked for me. My mission is therefore to empower you by equipping you with the necessary skills to fulfilling your potential and make the most needed change while meeting the most wanting needs in the society and the world at large.

My motto in life has always been Aspiring To Inspire Before I Expire. Why not get in touch with us and be inspired, empowered and soar like an Eagle? You have what it takes.

We know the Secrets to Your Success and will support you create it around your values, family and time.

Brenda Nokuzola Fassie was born in 1964 in Langa, a township near Cape Town. She was named after the American country singer Brenda Lee. The daughter of a pianist, Brenda began singing to her mother’s accompaniment at a very young age. At the age of five, she already had tourists paying to hear her sing. Producer Koloi Lebona heard about Brenda and brought her to Soweto to live with his family. She soon joined the group Joy and later formed her own band Brenda and the Big Dudes.

Fassie began a solo career in the 1980’s working with producer Sello Chicco Thwala. Her career skyrocketed in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s. Things seemed to all go downhill in the mid 1990’s when rumours of drug abuse began to surface. After a few a stints in rehab Fassie made a comeback in 1998 with the release of her very successful album Memeza, which was also a reunion with her long time producer Thwala.

BIO –FRANK PAA KUMI

Frank Paa Kumi is a thought-leader on good governance, a leadership and personnel development coach, an entrepreneur, a pastor, and a social innovator. Under his inspiring leadership, the Passionate Africa Leadership Institute (PALI)–a professional leadership organisation–was founded in June 2005 and has made remarkable strides ever since its formation.

His indefatigable efforts and professional leadership experience has seen PALI rise from the level of a small community based youth-led NGO into a fully-fledged personnel development institute. PALI has the following operational models: PALI-Centre for Leadership and People Development with focus on human capital development, PALI-Centre for Natural Capital Governance and Social Accountability with focus on policy development and advocacy, and PALI-Youth Impact Projects aimed at achieving a comprehensive youth empowerment in the African region.

Frank is fast becoming one of Africa’s shining examples in challenging the deficit thinking within the region, through the relentless effort he invests in developing the capacities of other young teen leaders. He is the Convener of the Reshape Africa Initiative, an offspring of the flagship

PALI-Youth Impact Projects, with the primary aim of achieving behavioural change in the African Youth through a process of consistent re-orientation in the way they act and do things.

Frank is a fellow of the 2017 cohort of the British Council’s Prestigious African Leadership Fellowship–a pan-African event that brings together emerging leaders from twenty-one states in three different regions across the world. Frank has a background in Organizational Development.

He has also received professional training in Human Resources Management from the Central University, Accra and the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration. (GIMPA).

PALI and its antecedent vision care network are both initiatives of Frank Paa Kumi, established in June 2005. Frank has a strong passion to create platforms for African youth empowerment. His passion is driven by the desire to develop potentials of African youths in leadership, inculcate in them strong values, and sharpen their core competence skills for better positioning in the corporate world and become globally competitive.

PALI, today, is driving the social innovation wheel while playing a pivotal role in equipping the region’s most valuable assets (Human Capital), having found a niche to advance the course of participatory governance, youth empowerment, and community leadership.

Frank believes  that future leadership should be best inspired by true service, a personal resolve to improve the generational leadership script, hence make a real difference.

The Moon Smiles Tonight

the moon smiles
at me tonight
in whispering rays
of dauntless mosaic

she wears a full face
of coral beads dangling
as of fresh beginnings
where orphaned shadows
walk backwards
from nightly shades

the moon smiles tonight…
she laughs,
leaning on fossils
at webbed thresholds
where LIFE is but scattered
into a single FILE
and groping reigns
in perfumed carcasses

the moon smiles tonight…
she laughs,
with the night’s hidden mouth
of open oracles
whom she holds
in tender lights

not unlike
a laughing stock
at these new markets
where ‘ohiwo’s’ water
sells for quickened honey

the
moon
smiles
tonight…
she laughs.
