First Day to Graduation: A Journey of Learning and Growth

As the students walked into their first class, their minds were buzzing with ideas about what Arduino was. Some had a pretty good understanding, while others were a bit off. But no worries—Mr. Elijah Kawinga was there to help. He introduced them to Arduino programming, showing them how to code and use this exciting technology.

But learning to code wasn’t the only thing on their agenda. They also had to learn about entrepreneurship from Mr. Andrew Mpate. Mr. Mpate taught them how to pitch ideas and become strong leaders—skills that are super important for anyone who wants to succeed in the tech world.

Next, it was time to dive into electronics with Mr. Tresefore. He explained how electronic components work and helped students get hands-on experience. This was an important step in turning their ideas into real projects.

Safety is always important, especially when working with electronics. Mr. Allan made sure the students understood how to stay safe while working on their projects. His lessons on occupational safety and health were crucial for their well-being.

In today’s world, it’s important to be visible and make connections. Miss Keitie introduced the students to LinkedIn, showing them how to create a professional profile and network with others in their field.

Finally, Mr. Dobbins helped the students put everything together. He guided them in taking their ideas and turning them into real projects. It was the perfect way to see all their hard work come to life.

As graduation approached, it was clear how much they had grown. From their first day of learning Arduino to their final projects, the students had come a long way. They had gained valuable skills, learned about entrepreneurship and safety, and developed a professional presence. Now, they are ready to take on new challenges and make their mark in the world.
