The Day the Internet Died: A Teacher’s Toolkit for Cyberattacks
Thu. May 29, 2025 | 9:00 am - 11:30 am CDT
Imagine: You start the day as any other. Thoughts of lesson plans, emails, and meetings run through your head. You jiggle your mouse to wake up your computer, but instead of your familiar desktop, an alarming message glares from your screen:: “!!!All of your files are encrypted!!!” Panic sets in. You reach for your desk phone to call IT staff, but there is no dial tone. The school’s internet, its digital lifeline, has been severed. The chilling realization hits: You’ve been hit by a cyberattack. How will you teach without technology?
This immersive workshop plunges you into the heart of a cyberattack, where carefully crafted digital lesson plans become useless, administrators scramble to communicate, and anxiety ripples through the school community. But amidst the chaos, resilience emerges. Teachers tap into their creativity, communities rally together, and IT professionals fight back against the unseen enemy. Learn to identify threats, implement robust security, teach creatively without tech, and foster cyber awareness. Turn crisis into opportunity and become a cyber-savvy educator ready for any digital challenge.
