This results in some very lopsided competitions. We view this as a threat tonovice players. Our conclusion is that the disparity of skills in an unbalanced game environmentcreates a hostile, inaccessible environment for students with budding interest in cybersecuritywho have limited computer-technical skills.Observation 4: Many competitions do not emphasize the tangential competencies ofcybersecurity careers such as ethical, legal, and privacy concerns inherent to cybersecurity.Additionally, most competitions also don not explore the need for demonstrating goodcommunication

crucialmechanism by which U.S. engineering education settings have grappled with unwanted politicalsensibilities is through silencing. There is an enduring sense that rigorous, respectableengineering training, as well as engineering in action, from the technical classroom, at the labbench, or on the factory floor must exclude the subjectivities we know as “politics.” This isdespite the concession by some that value systems known as “ethics” or “rigor” may (must) bebolstered [26], [27]. Across many technical subdisciplines, so-named ethics and other liabilitysystems are today seen to represent the universe of Engineers’ moral responsibilities in itsentirety. We are prompted to ask, then: How precisely does such apparent depoliticization ofEngineering

For one, graduate students struggle to balance the time commitments necessary for astructured training program with coursework and other academic program requirements.

In contrast, many Indigenous civilizations are more closely aligned with what hasbeen called the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP), which adopts a more holistic, interdependentview of these relationships oriented more toward an ethic of care for the natural world rather thanconquest [5]. These paradigm differences are especially important in the context of engineeringeducation because the DSP positions engineering and the technology it produces as a tool forsubduing nature in the service of humanity [8]. Individuals who hold more closely to the NEPmay thus find themselves further marginalized and alienated within the field because they hold afundamentally different
