“…They found that younger participants between the ages of 18 and 25 were more susceptible to phishing than other age groups [31]. Lastly, Matyas et al investigated students' security behavior over the course of several years and found that secure behavior improved, despite less and less students reading the university's security directive [20].…”

As cyber threats endanger everyone, from regular users to computing professionals, spreading cybersecurity awareness becomes increasingly critical. Therefore, our university designed an innovative cybersecurity awareness course that is freely available online for students, employees, and the general public. The course offers simple, actionable steps that anyone can use to implement defensive countermeasures. Compared to other resources, the course not only suggests learners what to do, but explains why and how to do it. To measure the course impact, we administered it to 138 computer science undergraduates within a compulsory information security and cryptography course. They completed the course as a part of their homework and filled out a questionnaire after each lesson. Analysis of the questionnaire responses revealed that the students valued the course highly. They reported new learning, perspective changes, and transfer to practice. Moreover, they suggested suitable improvements to the course. Based on the results, we have distilled specific insights to help security educators design similar courses. Lessons learned from this study are relevant for cybersecurity instructors, course designers, and educational managers.

“…Education informatization has entered a new stage of development and is shifting from digital education to intelligent education supported by modern information technology such as big data analysis and artificial intelligence [1][2]. At present, large-scale online education has accumulated a huge amount of teaching behaviour data and knowledge resources [3].…”

Online Education User Behaviour Based on Machine Learning

The rapid development of machine learning has made it possible to quickly mine exploitable data from massive amounts of data, and it is important for online education platforms to reasonably track the changing learning behaviour of learners. The aim of this paper is to study the prediction of online education user behaviour based on machine learning. A deep clustering algorithm is proposed based on demographic information about learning behaviour and clickstream data recorded in a university virtual learning environment. Applying the deep clustering model proposed in this paper to the analysis of the distribution of learning activities and the correlation between learning behaviour and education level, it is demonstrated that the deep clustering model proposed in this paper's can analyse and predict the learning behaviour of different student groups. It helps us to further study and analyse students' learning behaviour in depth and comprehensively in order to provide real-time quality feedback and promote the development of online education.
