Why add subjects to an already congested school curriculum, when a redesign of the entire curriculum is needed?
The word “digital” has a strong presence in virtually every sector these days, along with outcries for re-skilling and up-skilling of the workforce with digital literacy and skills for them to remain relevant for the future world of work. The Covid-19 pandemic has seemingly increased the pace and urgency of acquiring these skills. Internationally…https://engineering.nwu.ac.za/engineering/food-relief-disaster-project
