Running Header: LEARNING RESOURCE 1 NETFLIX 4 LEARNING RESOURCE 2 Learning Resource Name Class Professor Date TOPIC: CYBER SECURITY Profile of Intended Learners Cybersecurity refers to the protection of Internet-connected systems such as hardware, software, networks, and data from cyber attacks. Today’s modern world is considered digitalized. Cybersecurity is one of the fastest growing fields that have called for a great deal of attention. The intended learners for this cybersecurity course are undergraduates who have high analytical skills, passionate about technology, and intrigued by issues related to cybersecurity. Basic computer skills, mathematics, and basic security measures are the critical knowledge needed for learning cybersecurity. Technical and soft skills are essential in learning cybersecurity. Communication and problem-solving knowledge are the current knowledge that learners in the cybersecurity course would need. A Table Overview of Cyber Security Content CONTENT SUMMARY Introduction to Computing Learner would be introduced to computers as multipurpose electronic devices. They would learn how the devices receive, process, and store data. They would be taught how to use the together with the internet. Students would also learn the fundamentals of programming, control structures, and data structures. Computer Security Students would get to learn the techniques to ensure confidentiality, integrity related to disclosure and access of information, and techniques to prevent denial of services. Students would also be required to analyze various protocols and algorithms to facilitate a higher working knowledge of the programming language. Network Security Learners would learn about protecting the usability and integrity of networks and data. Students would be taught how to analyze security threats exposures, protect systems and data, deployment of firewalls and data encryption to minimize threats. Learners would further be taught how to assess alternative user and host authentication mechanisms to manage risks originating from outside networks. Cisco Networking Students would get to learn about the Cisco networking syllabus. The major focus of the content would be on routing and switching. Learners would get to be taught about the basic routes and switches of Cisco and explore the boot up process. They would further learn how to explore different configuration modes of routers and how to use the help functions to facilitate efficient navigation of operating systems. A Concept Mapping Overview of Learning Activities A Statement of Learning Theory Cybersecurity is a computer science topic, and the use of a scientific study of instructional design would be vital to facilitate learning. The constructivism theory would form the basis for the overall instructional design to promote knowledge of the cybersecurity topic. Constructivism would allow the learners to be in control of their learning. For the students to fully benefit from .
