Click on the link here to go to the Google Form that will help you keep track of the codes you will collect over the course of the week! If you have one, sign in to your Google account to save progress across any device.
We will be using repl.it to code in your web browser and access the "cases" you will solve during this week.
With the time leftover from solving our cases, you'll have the opportunity to play CyberStart Game, which is a training program provided by SANS (a real-life cybersecurity company!) to practice your skills in a "video game" way.
Access the Google Jamboard below and put words, images, or drawings that you think to represent the characteristics of a hacker. We'll discuss how accurate they are.
Let's watch a scene from Captain America: The Winter Soldier with a real hacker explaining what's wrong and right about how the "hacking" is portrayed!
