Cyber Education and Professional Development Lab
“History has shown we have done a great job educating with technology. Now we must do an even better job educating with cybersecurity.”
Dr. Wayne Pauli, Professor of Info Systems and Coordinator for PhD in Cyber Operations
The mission of the Cyber Education and Professional Development Lab is to provide cyber education curriculum and training, as well as professional development, to K-12 partners.
Children in K-12 are consumers of technology and spend an increasing amount of time on a variety of devices. This lab will provide cyber education curriculum and training to increase awareness on key topics, safety, security, and ethical behavior, while helping students become better digital citizens and consumers.
For K-12 teachers, this lab will provide the training to teach children about cybersecurity, as well as opportunities for professional development in areas like reading instruction, class management, and the latest technology tools and applications.Focus Areas
