- §126.19(c)(10)(A) — analyze real-world scenarios to identify cybersecurity threats and propose ways to prevent harm; and

Before class
Time: One class period
Student route: Day 3: Privacy, Surveillance + Safeguards
Use what already exists: Casebook and existing scenario sources.
Lesson flow
- Launch: Launch with a concrete question or failure that makes privacy tradeoffs matter.
- Model: Model one current example or tool move before students begin.
- Do: Guide the first decision together, then release students to the existing Canvas task.
- Check + support: Check for the named evidence, not completion alone; keep a visual sequence, sentence stems, and purposeful partner roles available.
- Close + handoff: Collect or verify the evidence and name the next lesson's connection.
Check before students leave
Ask students to point to the specific evidence above and explain one choice, test, or revision. Completion alone is not evidence of understanding.
Support + troubleshooting
Scaffold: Keep the visual task sequence visible, assign purposeful partner roles, and use the sentence stems on the student page before simplifying the task.
When students get stuck: Ask for the exact step where the tool, code, or task stopped. Check setup, inputs, and saved work before replacing the task or lowering the thinking.
