due to the growth oftechnologies, fast connections, and the widespread use of mobile devices. As a result,cybersecurity education is in dire need of an innovative curriculum and teaching approaches.Game-based learning is one of the emergent and quickly evolving types of computer-basedlearning. Creating cloud services and ready-to-use cybersecurity training courses, with a focus onteaching and training cybersecurity algorithms is essential [3]. Providing a virtual lab offers apractical learning environment is a crucial step, to enable thousands of students to access onlinecybersecurity education [4]. A visual lab provides students with a simulated environment wherethey can gain hands-on experience with cybersecurity tools and techniques

and empower youngadults to create positive change.The challenges faced during the project were diverse and included technical and social aspects,such as fundraising, documentation workload, and communication with leaders, commonlyencountered in similar projects. However, the COVID-19 pandemic added new challenges,emphasizing the need for innovation and adaptability in addressing these challenges. Effectiveproject management strategies and contingency plans are crucial in overcoming such challengesand ensuring the success of similar projects in the future. The results highlight the importance offlexibility, creativity, and resilience in addressing the challenges faced during community-basedinitiatives, particularly in today's rapidly changing
and middle schools. Students use classroom literature (stories, novels, andexpository texts) to identify engineering problems and explore their ideas through design projectsto solve these problems. This innovative approach was developed by the Center for EngineeringEducation and Outreach (CEEO) at Tufts University. Many teachers around the country currentlypractice it. The NE research team at CEEO conducts professional development (PD) workshopswhere elementary school teachers develop the knowledge, skills, and abilities to introduceengineering to their students. During the PD, teachers learn to integrate NE-inspired engineeringdesign challenges into their existing reading curriculum.In order to further improve the NE program and increase its
research into the project, the team developed an appreciation for energysaving inventions due to the difficulty of the intersections of costs, time, and product quality.Making the device high in efficiency yet affordable and sustainable was challenging. For betterresults, materials that are more expensive would need to be purchased, which did not align withour constraints. This was overcome by using lower quality materials, such as cardboard,electronics, and 3D printed parts, that were either created by the team or obtained through ouruniversity's First Year Engineering Learning and Innovation Center (FYELC). Planning how touse the resources we had was an engineering challenge the team learned from.The team also implemented technical skills and

have shown that participating in research as an undergraduate student can helpstudents explore their interest in graduate school [4], develop research skill [5], and improvelearning outcomes [6]. Further, undergraduate research has been shown to help students attainhigher levels of competence in STEM, thus positioning them to be strong contributors to theSTEM workforce [7]. Providing undergraduate engineering students co-curricular learningopportunities to deepen their knowledge of recent STEM advances will enable them to becomeengineers who are primed to innovate and push the boundaries of existing knowledge. It alsoprovides students access to a research community for interaction with other researchers [8] andopportunity to engage in active
opportunities to explorethese cutting-edge technologies and learn critical design and problem-solving skills that areessential for the future workforce of the “Fourth Industrial Revolution” [1]. Other benefits of theprogram will include professional development (including Continuing Education Credits) forCPS teachers, training and outreach experiences for undergraduate students currently studying inSTEM fields at Illinois State University, the creation of 32 innovative STEM activities perprogram year, and educational materials and equipment for the partnering high schools.The four project goals are: 1.
