  • Conference paper
  • First Online:

Abstract

Based on an analysis of current cybersecurity education in Europe and findings from a series of workshops conducted with selected groups of educators and learners in several European HEIs, this paper describes a methodology that is aimed at integrating the teaching of applied skills with the prevailing teaching, which is more focused on theoretical knowledge. The resulting COLTRANE Methodology aims at achieving this goal through providing a scenario-based and problem-oriented learning environment. A first case study is described and analyzed.

This project has been funded with support from the European Commission.
