Second year students of the Department of Information Science at the University of Pretoria presented Cyber Security Courses as part of their Joint Community-based Project module, JCP 202.
We visited Laerskool Pretoria-Oos, Laerskool Meyerspark and Tyger Valley Preparatory School. We focused on gaming addiction, cyber bullying, personal information, identity theft and internet safety. Not many people know of the dangers of the internet and the most vulnerable victims of cyber theft are mostly Primary school learners. Through making a fun interactive session about Cyber Security, the learners could interact and understand what is being taught to them through the connection to their own lives and personal experiences.
We won the JCP Award in 2020 for the Best new project in 2019
