Cybersecurity tip of the day: You Are a Target! You may not realize it, but you are a target. Your computer, your work and personal accounts and your information are all highly valuable to cyber criminals. Be mindful that bad guys are out to get you. sans.org/tip-of-the-day

First week of school . . . SUCCESS! Our new Cybersecurity class is off to a good start! We learned about the need for information security and multi-layered security barriers.Students had fun designing a multi-layered system to protect valuables. Example of one design:

So proud to have played a (small) role setting up flags this morning with the YAF club. I was amazed at the large number of students who woke up early this morning to participate! Never forget!

In lieu of a Cyber Tip of the Day, I am attaching an article about a ransomware attack at a school district in neighboring NJ. “Security is always excessive until it's not enough” -Robbie Sinclair Dr. Maureen Leeson Mike LaPorta Jack Silva Joseph Roy (Parody) lehighvalleylive.com/coronavirus/20…

Mr. Petrosky's Marketing class is working on promotional videos for each of our courses! Great project for authentic assessment--they will be useful for advertising our diverse curriculum! Stay tuned for more info! Jack Silva Mike LaPorta Dr. Maureen Leeson

Fresh Seminar news: Most classes are doing a "Genius Hour" project this fall. Students get an hour/week to pursue a personal passion and create a unique project. Kudos to Mrs. Mauro for starting this project! geniushour.com/what-is-genius… Jack Silva Mike LaPorta Dr. Maureen Leeson

More awesomeness: Mrs. Spang created a YouTube channel for her ELL learners. Students can rewatch a lesson/adjust playback speed for better comprehension. CC aids understanding and can be translated! Great for hearing impaired, too! Dr. Maureen Leeson Jack Silva Mike LaPorta

Perhaps cyber attacks are just on my radar since I began teaching a cybersecurity course (kind of like buying a new car--you notice just how many people drive that model). I found this one earlier today: wfmz.com/news/report-ge…

Look who joined our Cybersecurity class today for a lesson in ciphering and encryption! Can Mr. Cecchini crack the code and escape the Virtual Classroom?

Today in AI class: We learned how neural networks are trained by creating a dataset - we drew cars to "train the machine". We used Google's Quick Draw to see how machine learning works in real time! Dr. Maureen Leeson Rick Amato Marissa Kvacky Ms. Sage-FHS Jack Silva
