Abstract
With the rapid growth of the Internet-based smart mobile phone applications, a variety of sophisticated threats or attacks have been developed on the Internet recently. Therefore, how to enhance the cyber-security literacy education to prevent or mitigate Internet crimes becomes a very important and challenging issue. In this paper, the frame structure of the knowledge base for the card game called iMonsters has been designed to help students to easily understand the attack or defense strategies and concepts in cyber-security domain, and the ontology crystallization method will be applied to refine the existing ontology. We then propose a rule generation algorithm to generate new rules based upon learning from examples approach, and the generated new rules can be used as the scaffoldings to help the users to learn the knowledge obtained from the real cases. 53 children have participated in the iMonster card game playing in 2015. Based upon the experimental results, we can find that the card game playing can assist students to learn the cyber-security knowledge.
