Building a Cybersecurity Clinic
This video, from the National Cybersecurity Training and Education (NCyTE) Center, provides information on developing cybersecurity clinics. In a cybersecurity clinic, students are trained in cybersecurity and are partnered with organizations that lack the resources to have robust information security programs. Students identify cybersecurity risks, make recommendations, and sometimes implement improvements to the cybersecurity defenses of client organizations. During the presentation, Francesca Lockhart from the University of Texas introduces the concept of cybersecurity clinics and walks through each step in starting one. Topics include the fundamental elements of starting a clinic, best practices in deciding on and structuring clinic curriculum, clinic funding, recruiting students and clients for a clinic, and using metrics around student learning and client impact to demonstrate clinic success.This video runs 1:02:45 minutes in length
ATE Impacts: Allan Hancock College
This video, from Internet Scout Research Group, features Annette Parker and is intended to accompany the 2024-2025 ATE (Advanced Technological Education) Impacts book. This book showcases the important role that two-year community and technical colleges play in building the skilled technical workforce and provide evidence of the United States' critical economic need for technician education. The accompanying videos created in collaboration with Vox Television share the experiences of ATE alumni (students, administrators, educators, and industry partners) and the profound impact of ATE initiatives on their lives and careers. The book is available to view separately.This video highlights the success of Allan Hancock College's agriculture program, which was created through ATE funding. Erin Krier, coordinator and assistant professor of agriculture, gives a brief overview of the agriculture program, its development, and the contribution of ATE funding. Emphasis is placed on partnerships with industry, which provide paid internships for students and help the college tailor classroom instruction to industry needs. The video highlights the experience of program alumnus Yeni Martinez, who became a pest control advisor at Betteravia Farms after graduation. Martinez' journey to agriculture, the program's benefits, and its impacts are discussed.This video runs 4:57 minutes in length. Additional ATE Impacts videos are available to view separately
ITTSS Impacts
This 32-page report, published by Collin College, provides an overview of the ITSS Skill Standards 2020 and Beyond (ITSS) grant project, including project outcomes and impacts on educational institutions and employers. ITSS aimed to provide comprehensive skill standard content to better align technical curriculum with workforce needs. To do this, ITSS used the Business and Industry Leadership Team (BILT) model, which consisted of successive meetings with thought leaders and subject matter experts (SMEs) to develop employer-led standards. The report discusses the BILT process and SMEs, the ITSS Summit workshops, outputs from SMEs, and the dissemination of ITSS materials. Also included are case studies from institutions that adopted the ITSS process and BILT model, along with testimonials from SMEs, summit attendees, and more.A companion resource with guidance on using the BILT model to create standards is available to view separately
ITTSS Resource Guide
This 172-page resource was developed as a reference guide for the IT Skill Standards 2020 and Beyond project grant, explaining in step-by-step detail how to collaborate with employers to develop future-facing technical skill standards and then use that work to align curriculum to workforce needs. This guide also provides a hard copy of the final version "products" the grant created (KSA+Ts - knowledge, skills, abilities, and tasks, key performance indicators, employability skills, student learning outcomes, and degree expectations).A companion report on the impacts and outcomes of the ITSS project is available to view separately
Nmap (Part 4 of 4)
This video, presented by instructor Tony Hills from the Cybersecurity Education for Advanced Manufacturing Organizations project, is the last in a series of lectures on using Nmap, a free, open-source network scanning software used in network functionality and security. This lecture covers performing idle scans with Nmap, different options for modifying Nmap port mapping, Nmap target identification, and exporting Nmap results. Hills walks learners through the options available to modify timing and port status when port mapping with Nmap. Also included is a summary of information included in the series.This video runs 18:35 minutes in length. Additional videos from the series and a related training scenario are available to view separately
Discovering Your Professional Skills: Student Handbook
This resource provided by SRI International includes the Discovering Your Professional Skills student handbook and a corresponding student rubric. The 16-page handbook introduces students to professional skills for self-development. The handbook can be used to demonstrate examples of professional skills in the workplace, practice professional skills, map out the development of professional skills, and more. Included in the handbook is a checklist of professional skills and a four step guide to self reflection and personal growth. The 1-page student rubric guides learners through the self-evaluation of professional skills in a group setting, assisting students in self reflection, and identifying areas for self improvement. Criteria for sharing relevant ideas, displaying a positive attitude, and treating team members fairly, as well as evaluating the quality of written contributions is included
Generator Demonstration (Part 2 of 2)
This video, published by Columbia Gorge Community College, is the second part of a two part demonstration of an isolated electrically excited synchronous generator in the loaded condition. The demonstration will illustrate how varying the magnitude and reactive nature of an electrical load connected to a synchronous generator can influence generator's output. In this video, presenter Jim Pytel focuses on the prime mover slowing down and how it results in decreased frequency and voltage magnitude.This video runs 8:39 minutes in length. The first part of the lecture is available to view separately
Equitable and Efficient Electrification
In this video, provided by the Building Efficiency for a Sustainable Tomorrow (BEST) Center, Mark Kresowik from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) discusses the process of electrification and how to keep it cost-effective, efficient, and equitable. Kresowik discusses five strategic policy levers needed to ensure that electrification is equitable and efficient, the role of heat pumps in electrification, electrification of newly built homes, and more. Highlighted are national programs dedicated to funding electrification and their impact in low-income and disadvantaged communities.The video runs 23:12 minutes in length
