Comic-BEE - An education technology for developing interactive, graphic cybersecurity stories and web comics
In this VBBL, Laurin Buchanan will discuss and demonstrate the use of Comic-BEE, a novel cybersecurity education technology designed to support the rapid creation of interactive, graphic stories -web comics- that align with cybersecurity curricular goals. By making choices on behalf of a character in the comic, readers experience the outcome of those choices –positive or negative– in a safe environment. These web comics can be used for education or evaluation (assessment) of diverse cybersecurity knowledge, skills and abilities. Join us to explore how graphic storytelling can enable cybersecurity education, rather than training, and learn how both educators and employers can engage and assess learners at any stage with critical cyber concepts.
Comic-BEE was awarded the Best Student Learning Aid in the 2018 Innovations in Cybersecurity Eeducation from National Cyberwatch Center.
