Ludic Activities in Foreign Language Learning: The CAVIF Project in Uganda
Teachers of the French language in the Department of European and Oriental Language at Makerere University kept wondering what could be done to help young beginner learners of French to speak the language more efficiently and be effortlessly creative. By general observation, the teachers noted that this could best be done through games and play-like activities. This was later to be verified through French Holiday Camps or Cadres de Vie en Francais.
The initiative of the “CAVIF Project” identified a gap that the teachers were eager to fill. However, with the ending of the initial financing of the Federarion Internationale des Professeurs de Francais (FIPF) it became apparent that pedagogical goal needed several years of trial before fully responding to the curriculum needs with supporting evidence. The study took five years of organizing mini-language immersion camps for secondary school learners of French. This process, supported by a Fulbright African Scholar Fellowship at the University of Connecticut for the corresponding editor, resulted in the collective publication of this title, Ludic Activities in the Learning of Foreign Languages: The CAVIF Project of Uganda. This book is a record and an assessment of five years of experiential and collaborative learning aimed at improving students’ interactive skills through the use of word and number games, songs, photographs, proverbs, French cuisine, excursions, drama, debate and talent show. The application of these interactive pedagogical approaches will be helpful to readers not only for increasing learner motivation but also for making the learning environment in non-Francopnone contexts more conducive.

Guidance and Counselling: A Handbook for Teachers and Students
Teaching minus counselling is like faith without action, which is dead (James 2:26). Dr. Charles Tinega's more than twenty-five (25) years' teaching sojourn provides a perfect experience that he now wants to share with you: most excellent Theophilus (Luke 1:3). With respect to guidance and counselling, the experience is revealed in this simple, practical, and heartfelt handbook.
Indiscipline in institutions of learning poses a great challenge not only to young people but also to society at large. This is compounded by life-threatening phenomena such as HIV/AIDS and the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as drugs and other dangerous and addictive substances. All these undermine the provision of quality education to the youth in institutions of learning.
Guidance and Counselling: a Handbook for Teachers and Students starts off the presentation of the topical issues with a captivating motivational story dubbed "Parable of a Foolish Bee", which captures the need for young people to respect elders in society. The book goes on to offer guidelines on formulating a code of conduct, especially for secondary schools in Kenya. This is beneficial to institutions that have not yet had an elaborate copy of school rules and regulations or those wishing to revise the existing ones.
The Gusii of Kenya by John S. Akama
The Gusii of Kenya: Social, Economic, Cultural, Political & Judicial Perspectives provides in-depth topical insights of the Gusii (also known as the Kisii) of Kenya. The book captures historical aspects of the Gusii and how they ended up occupying their present lands. It enunciates the group’s cultural, political and economic organization that are core to the group’s identify and overall survival. Reading the book would provide understanding of some noticeable elements of these perspectives that persist to date. Cultural aspects such as the rites of passage and weddings, part of core identity elements of a people, are well articulated. Social organization, starting at the homestead to clan to community level, was intricately woven to form a coherence whole that defined the Gusii. Indeed, this also formed a basis of core elements of code of conduct (chinsoni) and justice as traditionally administered.
The book also raises a number of questions regarding the core character of the Gusii such as lack of central authority and the implications this has had on the community over time. One can only speculate the trajectory of history that would have been had the Gusii organized themselves differently.

Oral Poetry in Africa :The Abagusii of Kenya
Oral Poetry in Africa: The Abagusii of Kenya highlights characteristics of African
oral traditions with particular focus on the oral poetry of the Abagusii of Kenya. It
shows that oral poetry in the Abagusii community covered every facet of life. The
community’s social-political and economic life, history, values, norms and customs
were stored in the oral poetry, in addition to proverbs, riddles and folktales. Notably,
oral poetry coloured the entire life of Omogusii and was sung during birth, initiation,
marriage and death ceremonies. This book documents the oral poetry of the
community in its original form, and in various versions that were practised or sung in
different parts of the region inhabited by the community. Further, the book discusses
the context in which this poetry was sung and explains some of the cultural practices,
norms, and customs that surround or motivated the composition of the poetry.
The advent of colonialism had ‘corrupting’ influence on the original poetry, more so
with the adoption of English words and phrases. This kind of poetry has not been left
out.
Aside from the general poetry and the book also captures emeino, the Abagusii
classical oral poetry. While the general poetry utilized improvisation as a technique in
its presentation and performance, the classical poetry was a fixed form that demanded
to be sung in its original form. Unlike the general poetry that, in its ephemerality,
invited additions and subtractions from the text, classical poetry was permanent in
text with no room for improvisation.
Oral Poetry in Africa: The Abagusii of Kenya is meant for students of oral literature
at university level. However, it can also be used by researchers of African oral
literature, culture, anthropology, history and sociology. Indeed, it is also good for the
general reader who is interested in the culture of Abagusii and African people, in general

The Making Of A Symphony Orchestra – Timeless Leadership
The subject of leadership has been written all the years by both big and small names, in large and small prints. Why, then, would I bother to write another book on this subject? Why would one need to read this book? Perhaps in the following few paragraphs I will be able to make a case for this inspired cause and thus gain your most precious audience.
"Running away from a problem does not solve it," one of my teachers said. "You must confront the problem in order to solve it." In my childhood, I learnt the value of taking responsibility whenever there was something that needed to be addressed. These were my first leadership lessons. In that case, therefore, in my study and practice, I still felt a sense of responsibility to
add my little voice to this very important subject, even if doing so could only help a single individual to be inspired into becoming the person The Creator intended in him or her. This book, over and above learning leadership, helps people to identify their purpose in life and unify it with
their leadership agenda with a view of leaving a timeless legacy. Life therefore becomes one adventurous journey of leadership to all who study this book.
Of course, the very first person that you ought to lead is yourself and by being able to appropriately do so, you earn the right to lead others too. They, themselves, shall be
willing to be led by you. In this book, I share personal life experiences in leadership in the simplest possible language for leaders at all levels to draw maximum benefit from.
My innate drive to keenly and reflectively study situations from every facet of life I get involved in and my love for music found an opportunity to converge. Thus, this book uses the metaphor of orchestral music to share salient leadership lessons that would hitherto stay hidden from some people. This is not a music book. It is a leadership book. You do not have to know music in order to appreciate it. All you have to do is contemplatively tap your right foot
to its beats as you drink from its priceless pot of knowledge.
As life would have it, the universe is full of music. All around us is music in the sense of harmony. The Creator did not intend any chaos, but harmony in all we see and do. That
is what makes music; many parts, many instruments, many participants but one beautiful piece of art that is pleasing to the ear. The same applies in all our leadership positions. We
have to bring all pieces together in order to achieve the envisioned results. That is the language of life. Whoever makes the best symphony becomes the greatest leader;- the greatest director for the orchestra.
It is my belief that you will enjoy the musicality in this leadership book as you dutifully mine the nuggets of wisdom that lurk within the pages into your life. The lessons you are going to learn by studying it shall forever remain imprinted in your heart and positively contribute to your immortality.
I wish you all the best in your leadership endeavors and look forward to receiving feedback from you about how this book impacted your life.
