So today I learned that if you really want to torture your intro to cybersecurity students, the best thing to do is to teach the course, then near the end make them watch two Hollywood portrayals of hacking and write a paper on each comparing them to real-life cybersecurity.
Short version: I'm 3 minutes into Live Free or Die Hard and I already hate it.
(To be fair, it's not actually torture. It's a fun assignment, and I actually think @CSCPROF did a really good job with this assignment. Still, I don't think I'm ever going to speak positively of this particular movie.)
@mathlover @CSCPROF Excellent outside the box assignment there! I too like to keep students awake and on their toes with assignments and such. Keep caring!
@mathlover @CSCPROF Read this tired! Oops. Post-nap me sees it now. Great work to the professor!
@mathlover @CSCPROF What's the other movie? Those are usually pretty painful, though I did love Sneakers.
