Minimizing Security Vulnerabilities in High-Tech Classrooms
Ozkan, Betul C.; Gunay, Vedat
T.H.E. Journal, v32 n1 p32 Aug 2004
Emerging technologies are quickly becoming part of daily learning and teaching endeavors in academia. Due to the access to certain high-tech tools educators must learn how to integrate these tools in educational settings. However, many also encounter problems and weaknesses in the same high-tech environment that uses and delivers information through computer networks. Issues range from maintaining secure networks in classrooms to having a better quality learning environment for students and faculty to use and share information systems. Today, it is a common practice for most universities to use networked computers that enable users to communicate freely with each other. However, only a few students, faculty members and administrators are aware of the risks and vulnerabilities that exist in their network operating systems. In this article, the authors address how students, faculty and administrators can become more knowledgeable of the vulnerabilities in high-tech classrooms.
