Organization of Training with the Use of Digital Technologies for Ensuring Cybersecurity in the Educational Space

Abstract

The goal of the project was to improve the understanding and evaluation of the effectiveness of teaching cybersecurity in the classroom using digital technologies. Pedagogical conditions related to digital technologies were used in the experiment. In addition, testing methods (EETS and DigCompEdu Test) and questionnaires were used. The following statistical methods were used in the study: correlation analysis, t-test, ̅i-square, Pearson correlation coefficient, Mann-Whitney U-test, correlation analysis. Cronbach’s alpha was used to assess the reliability of the instruments. Research findings show that cyber security training significantly increased students’ knowledge of online safety strategies and digital threats. After receiving the training, learners demonstrated an increased awareness of potential dangers and a greater willingness to take precautions to protect their privacy and data when using the Internet. It was found that training using digital technologies helps to increase the level of cyber security in the educational space. Further research may focus on the impact of digital technologies on cybersecurity in the educational space. Investigating the effectiveness of specific digital tools and programs in educating students about cybersecurity is important.
