Networking Wired & Wireless
Computers communicate the same way that people communicate. In this course, students will learn how computers communicate., will learn the inter-working of how computers communicate. Students will work on a series of projects that will allow them to connect computers into work groups and domains. Students will also work on building smart rooms and leveraging wireless technology.
CYBER SECURITY 101
This learning session is an introduction to cyber-security and is designed to give students a birds-eye view into the vast world of cyber-security. Students will gain an understanding of security and how to recognize the threats that could harm them while online. Students will be introduced to the different types of malware, viruses, Trojans, and building systems and appliances to scan and eliminate security threats.
Intro Cyber Security
-
Understand the cyber security Framework Core and its five concurrent and continuous Functions—Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover.
-
Understand the potential computer violations that may occur and the attackers.
-
Understand the methods used in doing reconnaissance against a computer system or network.
-
Understand how to prepare and defend against cyber-crimes and information theft.
-
Understand the appropriate measures to be taken should a cyber-crime occur.

Raspberry Pi Concepts
The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card-sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. Students will construct a Raspberry Pi and its corresponding parts to create a functional mini-computer to take home. Once constructed, the students will engage in a series of electronics projects including: building live chat sessions, internet browsing, remote OS installation, and playing games.
