Instead, Making is the emergent culture that comesout of the confluence of individuals with shared interests, varied experiences, and a

. IntroductionAccording to Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada, “Digital skills, likecoding and understanding how to use new technologies to solve real world problems havebecome increasingly vital across all sectors of the global economy” [1]. The importance ofdigital skills extends beyond the borders of one country and encompasses the whole world [2].Engineers are key to building the future societies and economies. Hence, the impact of digitalskills training in engineering education is of utmost importance. In this paper, a systematicliterature review of digital skills programs in global K-12 education is performed.First, we define the term ‘digital skills.’ The use of the term ‘digital skills’ has soared since thelate 1990s as the Internet

Because this particular library has been closedfor renovations, staff have been asked to assist the circulation desks of other campus libraries(highlighting that staffing shortages plague the entire library system). One of the main challenges of hiring more librarians is that staffing is often beyond theindividual library’s control. Positions need to be justified
