We developed a “Cyber World” version of our team-taught first-yearexperience course at the University of New Haven with the intent of introducing students toimportant cybersecurity concepts. In comparison with other topics taught during the samesemester, students reported a greater level of knowledge in topics of identity theft, safe practicesfor online transactions, fake news, and information oversharing. A pilot online module related tolectures and class activities was well received and supports the increased use

improvement transcended the strictcurricular boundaries. Many of the changes made were in the process of assessment andevaluation. The process initiated in 2016 and 2017 was improved in 2018 and 2019. The“One-Stop ABET website,” and our refined data collection and analysis tools helped thefront end of the assessment process. The efficiencies of these improvements provided moretime to the faculty to deliberate issues related to evaluation and implementation.The new assessment system defines key performance indicators (Table 2) that are related to theessential core of the computer science discipline. These indicators are used to demonstratecompliance with the SOs. A Traceability Matrix (Table 3) is used to show the relationship amongcourses

The REU PI Guide design effort focused on providing PIs with resourcesneeded to satisfy the needs of all stakeholders satisfactorily.Goals of the REU PI GuideA primary goal of the REU PI Guide was to significantly smooth the process of running REUsites for new PIs. Sometimes due to federal budget delays, PIs receive their new REU site awardwith very short notice, and the first REU summer may be organized with a more ad hoc approachthan desired. Ideally the REU PI Guide would help avoid this situation and

New IoT devicesare always becoming available and the research into each cannot keep up. As such, there is a gapin the literature regarding both the privacy and security of these devices and the most efficientmethods to investigate them.

The camp was founded to explore new avenuesfor such and seeks to do so by addressing three concerns: cost, administering a curriculum that isinclusive, i.e. does not require prior experience in the discipline and modeling diversity.Surprisingly, the concern of cost was the easiest to address, thanks to a grant that fully funded thecamp. This allowed the camp to be offered at no cost to the students. While this was the easiesthurdle, it was arguably the most important. By offering free tuition to all, a major economicbarrier was removed. It is noted that the issue of connectivity was beyond the scope of thecapabilities of this project.Another concern was administering a curriculum that is inclusive in that it does not require

While these two data types are ideal formaintaining precision, there are cases where accuracy is a larger concern.

practice can be difficult for students as they attempt tobuild a cohesive understanding of the subject. It also poses a challenge for faculty trying toconvey dense, text-heavy technical information using either the conventional chalkboard orpresentation software. It is easy for the underlying beauty of the concepts to stay hidden underthe jargon-filled landscape. Notes written on the whiteboard or chalkboard by faculty focus onconveying technical content to students, and these may make only limited used of graphicaldesign ideas that can be leveraged for communicating information more effectively. What isneeded is a mechanism for engaging both the students’ imagination and technical skills whilebuilding an understanding of concepts, using
