Teaching mobile computing and mobile security

Abstract

Due to the popularity of mobile devices, it is important to teach mobile computing and security to students in colleges and universities. This paper describes eight course modules on mobile computing and security we developed that could be integrated into a computer science curriculum. These course modules were presented at a faculty workshop. Workshop evaluation includes a survey questionnaire and reflective narratives from participants. The workshop evaluation results are discussed in this paper. The course modules can be adopted by instructors teaching mobile application development, cyber security or other related courses.
