B′More Secure GenCyber Professional Learning Community
The B’More Secure GenCyber program is open to middle and high school Maryland teachers
(from any discipline) who are interested in infusing cybersecurity lessons in their
teaching.
The program is primarily designed for teachers with little to no cybersecurity content
knowledge. However, teachers with existing cybersecurity content knowledge and teaching
experience are also encouraged to apply, as a focus on the pedagogy of teaching of
cyber, career connections, and social justice issues related to cybersecurity will
be benefit all teachers.
The program begins with an intensive, in-person Summer Camp at Towson University (June
26–30). During the 2023–2024 school year, participants will implement at least two
cybersecurity lessons in their classrooms, participate in virtual meetings and attend
a final in-person session in May, 2023.
This workshop is made possible by funding from the National Security Agency and the
National Science Foundation.
We are no longer accepting applications for the 2023–2024 cohort.
