MY COLLEGE EXPERIENCE 

 Challenges and Selection 

 Storytelling is a powerful tool that I use all the time in my area of specialization and my day to day work .   I work with students from different part of my country , background and culture . Some of them are   senior citizen while others are young ( teenagers ) . 

 Most of these students are economically disadvantaged . A large percentage have come to study due to   economic times in our country other due to life experience for example they got married at a tender   age , got children whom they can not support , they can not get a job because they do n’t have the   required skills in the market . Thus they need to acquire hands on skills and empower themselves to get   a job . 

 I spend most of my time talking to them and inspire them being the dean of student in the college   makes me have many cases of student including and not limited to displinary , attendance of classes ,   early pregnancies those having difficulty in paying fees etc . I inspire them so that they learn and upgrade   their lifestyle . Some of them are open with me and they share their life experience and some of the   stories I use in guiding and counseling others and teach because we all learn from experience . 

 I share my personal experience how I started from a certificate course , coming from a humble   background and now am a lecturer in one of the public university and technical and vocational college .   This has made me interact with different people with different status in our country . I use this stories/   information to develop different strategies to try and find a way to encourage them to work hard and be   empowered in their area of specialization . 

 Application 

 I have a story how to succeed in your academics and grow in your career I tried telling my information   technology students how I started with the lowest certificate course ( CIT ) . This is because i never   performed in my o level to get a direct entry in the university . I always tell them that they are unique in   every aspect and they only need to be focused in their academics . 

 The culture around our college is that girls do n’t excel in science courses . Most girls have been dropping   from college due to teenage pregnancies . I give them examples of other students who have gone   through college and university after giving birth and being successful they should not give up in their   education . Most take in the advice and finish their courses and that makes enrolment in our university   and college increase . Thus earning our college capitation which is money given to the college by the   government . Because the less the enrolment the less the funding . 

 Insight 

 I tried these strategies in my first year of being a part time lecturer and it worked and most students   performed well especially in my subject area and the enrollment improved . Sharing my personal story   and being a good listener has really encouraged girls and they see they can make it in life . I enrolled for 

 the diploma course in Information Technology , before I finished the course I conceived and gave birth to   a baby girl . I went back to university and studied the last year and emerged the top in my class . I later   enrolled for Bachelor of Science Information Technology in the same university and scored highly . I was   later employed as a tutorial fellow this inspired me to undertake my Masters in business administration   ( Management information systems option ) . 

 This inspires my students so much and it has a big impact on them . The students are performing well   and incase of any eventuality they reach out to me very fast making me have an easy time as the dean of   students . 

 Approach 

 This course has made me realize this is a very important tool in design thinking . While I have been doing   it I thought it ’s just a normal talk and making this students understand life but now I can understand and   prepare for more stories and also read other people experiences over the same . This will help me more .   I find storytelling as an asset to me and my institutions .
