CyberGames
Students will explore cybersecurity and the vulnerabilities equity process (VEP) to learn how the government uses information acquired for cybersecurity purposes.
Network Packet Transmission
Inspired by my work with cybersecurity company, Palo Alto Networks, this lesson centers on how data moves through networks. It touches on Newton’s discovery of the color spectrum, the capture of the German Enigma coding machine during World War II, cryptography, and modern ASCII code.
Advanced Through an Electric Vehicle
Students will identify parts of an electric vehicle, determine their various functions through a webquest, and then use these EV parts to write a script for the next cartoon episode… “Field Trip through the Electric Vehicle”
All Charged Up
Students will explore how a battery works, build their own battery, and then compare and contrast technologies specific to electric vehicle batteries.
Harnessing the Wind
Students will build a wind turbine using recyclable materials (or RAFT kits) and learn about the role of a generator in transforming the kinetic energy into electrical energy.
