Popis: The popularity and the large market share of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablets have had a significant impact on our daily lives. The full-fledged computing platforms render a ubiquitous means to deliver information and knowledge. This project aims to utilize such platforms to enhance computer science education, especially in curricula such as programming, mobile application development and information assurance and security. Meanwhile, there is an urgent need to produce more qualified computer professionals in mobile application development and information assurance and security to meet the workforce shortage. In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of our hands-on pedagogical model for learning information assurance and security based on mobile devices. Not only is this model feasible, but also it is affordable. The lab ware consists of hands-on real-world relevant self-contained learning modules, and is designed to be ready for wide scale implementation.
