Students will learn how computer chips get transformed from a brick of processed material into the items we associate with electronic devices, by addressing Photolithography, or the method of stenciling complex designs into silicon wafer.
By engaging in a real engineering design challenge, students will be able to experience a high-stakes competition to solve their challenge through troubleshooting.
Students will learn about the manufacturing methods used to transform raw Silicon into positively- and negatively-charged components, along with the function of diodes and transistors in a computing system.
This ETP lays the groundwork for an eight-week project-based learning curriculum unit to explore the complexities of solving an engineering problem that combines technical challenges and ethical considerations.
Blockchain: animated tutorial is a team project for a computer science course. Students, in a small team setting, research blockchain technology: what it is and how it works; then produce animated tutorial videos that explain blockchain.
Decrypting secret messages has been around for decades. The need to decrypt different algorithms is essential in cyber warfare and the understanding of the threats that surround us on the internet daily.
Cyberattacks have been happening for a long time, so now there are experts in the field of cybersecurity to prevent cyberattacks. There are a lot more devices now (including computers, phones, tablets) that attacks can target.
People use apps everyday all over the world. Their personal data is flowing through the internet even when people are not actively using their devices. To this end, people need to learn how to protect their data.
Networks, hosts, clients, and servers are components of computer communication. Each component is vulnerable in different ways to cyberattacks that can result in personal and monetary loss.
