A prototype will then be designed using suitable computer programs such as CAD based i.e. PROEngineer and/ or PSpice for designing circuits.

During this year long volunteer schemeI had set out to become an inspiring mentor for first and second year students at Glasgow Caledonian University. I had a clear plan with set objectives as follows: • Assist the mentee to establish realistic career goals and plan how to achieve them.• Act as a sounding board when the mentee wants to talk through decisions and ideas.• Challenge the mentee to face up to opportunities and problems, personal strengths and weaknesses.• Act as a gateway to other people and sources of knowledge.• Seek opportunities to help the mentee practise and develop key skills for the future.• Pass on know-how and essential thinking patterns and attitudes that might go with a different role or set of responsibilities.• Generate workable solutions together in a mutually respectful way.• Motivate, advise and support whilst empowering the mentee to make their own decisions and take responsibility for their own actions and development.This was a great chance for me to learn how to encourage other students to strive for the best as everyone has the potential to achieve their academic goals whilst taking up other responsbilities to ensure that they are on the right track of doing so. By setting out a more relaxed atmosphere, it was possible to aid students to create their own agenda on how to achieve their goals without feeling the pressure of deadlines thus building up their self-confidence and by drawing from my own experience and knowledge, to expand their knowledge of various subjects I had studied in.
