Marcus Green<p>I taught 16 to 19 year olds for 10 year a long time ago. I constantly got assignment submissions that were copied from the web/wikipedia. I would ask students if they wrote it. They would say yes, Then I asked if they could explain it. They said no. I didn’t get annoyed, I explained they had to submit their own work and please do it again.</p><p>Was the issue the web/wikipedia/tech.?

Doug Levin<p>Call for Public Input: Essential Cybersecurity Protections for K-12 Schools (2025-26 SY)</p><p>The goal of the K12 SIX Essential Cybersecurity Protections is to communicate the most important defenses that K-12 school systems can implement to dramatically reduce the cybersecurity risks they are currently facing. Designed to address the most frequently experienced school cyber incidents and taking into consideration advice from other national cybersecurity risk management frameworks, the K12 SIX Essential Protections were built specifically for the K-12 community by practicing K-12 IT practitioners, taking into account the unique context in which the education sector operates. Entering its fourth annual update and revision cycle for the 2025-26 school year, it is an opinionated framework, emphasizing accessibility and pragmatism over comprehensiveness. <a href="https://www.k12six.org/news/call-for-public-input-essential-cybersecurity-protections-for-schools-hwyc2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">k12six.org/news/call-for-publi</span><span class="invisible">c-input-essential-cybersecurity-protections-for-schools-hwyc2</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/edtech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>edtech</span></a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybersecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cybersecurity</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@PogoWasRight" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>PogoWasRight</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@brett" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>brett</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://freeradical.zone/@funnymonkey" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>funnymonkey</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://journa.host/@mkeierleber" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>mkeierleber</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@michaelfklein" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>michaelfklein</span></a></span></p>
