This workshop provides an excellent opportunity to develop instructional excellence and to network with peers. Expected outcome of the workshop is to provide concrete case studies, and hands-on lab material, test questions, and evaluation rubrics that can be applied in teaching information assurance in computing related courses. The workshop will also focus on developing effective evaluation instruments that can lead to peer-reviewed publications in CS education conferences/journals.

Workshop Registration is closed for year 2014. 

The same workshop will be held in Tuskegee University in the summer of 2015.
