| Abstract [eng] |
A considerable shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals has pushed higher education institutions under growing pressure to produce graduates who are skilled enough to fill these positions. Conventional lecture-centered delivery of introductory cybersecurity courses are efficient for knowledge transmission. However, it struggles to develop inquiry, collaboration, and transferable competencies that national and foreign policies now identify as essential. This paper examines Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) as a pedagogical method for a cybersecurity fundamentals course. As the voluntary anonymous survey suggests, students of little to moderate experience considered CBL integration as a useful, helpful and contributive method. |
