Teach the teachers
Capacity : 50pax
Through practical workshops, empower technical and non-technical teachers to guide their students on the different aspects of cybersecurity and equip teachers with the tools required to integrate cybersecurity learning into the classroom. You will learn the importance of teaching cybersecurity in a classroom environment, the technical dangers and social challenges that your students are exposed to and the solutions for dealing with these dangers.
What’s in it for me as a teacher?
In the age of social media, where youngsters often spend more time in the digital world than in the real world, it is important to equip them with the skills needed to navigate the web safely and securely.
Technology teachers will learn the importance of educating students about protecting their personal information, being wary of phishing and fighting against malware.
Non-technology teachers will help students realize the softer side of cybersecurity – from cyber bullying to social media addiction and create integrated learning plans for cybersecurity.
How does it look?
Technology teachers may easily be able to relate to cybersecurity, but how do you ensure that non-tech teachers also play a key role in shaping their students’ cyber security perceptions and knowledge? Technology teachers may be knowledgeable about cybersecurity, but often their knowledge might be outdated.
Through workshops, case studies, quizzes and games, you will be provided with the tools and techniques needed to integrate and implement cybersecurity learning for your students.
As tech teachers, you will learn a great deal about various cybersecurity topics in a workshop-type learning space. The list of topics covered include:
- Cyber bullying
- Wi-Fi protection
- Fight against the phishing
- Protection against malware, and many more.
Imagine the following scenarios taking place in your classroom as a non-tech teacher. Do you know the appropriate response?
“A student informs their teacher about a case of cyberbullying going on between students on social media sites. The student asks the teacher not to intervene because, if the bullies find out, they will also target the student that reported them.”
There’s something for everyone. Drop by our workshops for tech and non-tech teachers to learn more and add the necessary tools to your arsenal in order to keep your students cyber smart and cyber safe.
In a workshop-type learning environment, tech and non-tech teachers alike are able to gain a vast amount of knowledge about the risks your students face online and how to overcome them.
