Abstract
The Cybersecurity Training for Teachers (CTT) is an introductory course
designed to equip teachers, teacher educators and other education
practitioners with the skills and knowledge that they need to protect
themselves and their students online, as well as create awareness for the
parents and carers. The adoption of online and other forms of blended
learning has presented various threats to teachers and their learners,
making the need for training in online safety even greater. In many families
from the developing Commonwealth, learners are increasingly accessing
online learning and assessment resources using devices owned by
parents or older family members, putting them and their families at risk of
cyber-attacks. Also, recent reports show a spike in cyber threats within the
education sector, making cybersecurity a key concern for educators. In
some parts of the world, there have been reports of disruption and learning
loss due to cyber threats. This introductory course enables participants to
be safe users of digital learning technologies as they engage with learners
and their carers in various online spaces.
