About the event
Every day, we text, shop, and socialize using our phones, tablets, and computers. You may be in school, at a coffee shop, or at the park, on Facebook and totally unaware that you’ve been the victim of a cybercrime — identity theft or phishing engineered by a hacker. This webinar will offer teachers a way to engage students in these security topics by using a template based on classic Jeopardy!
Teachers and/or students can change categories, points, and overall game structure for future use with other topics or EdTech tools as well. The Jeopardy! template or Kahoot lesson can be put to use for hybrid lessons as well.
Categories and questions will cover types of ID theft, recognizing, reporting, and researching a scam, prevention best practices, “scam speak” and more.
Lastly, see how chapters in CEE’s Financial Fitness for Life, Grade 9-12 Edition, and other online resources dealing with these important topics.
