Cyber Defense Competitions and Information Security Education: An Active Learning Solution for a Capstone Course
The content of information security curricula spans a wide array of topics. Because of this variety, a program needs to focus on some particular aspect and provide appropriate depth of education. Active learning theory provides insight into methods of increasing skill development and retention through specific instructional methods. Applying active learning to a capstone course in information security centered around management of security in a business setting has been shown to be highly effective. Using a Cyber Defense Competition to provide a hands-on opportunity for students to test their skills and develop team based management skills in an operational business environment impacts many constituencies. Participating students learn in a true active learning environment. Instructors are able to evaluate the thoroughness of their curriculum in its intended setting. Other students learn as teams prepare for the competition. In the end, everyone feels they had learned important lessons.
