Assessing \ student learning of the technical aspects cannot be \ performed using traditional tests, as they would not \ properly measure what the students are learning in a \ practical sense. Instead, we employ journals and self-reflection \ to ask the students to express and \ demonstrate their learning. Although somewhat \ harder to grade, the journals have huge benefits to \ the learning environment as well as to actual \ learning.9 pagesengAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalassessment using journalscybersecurity educationSTEM education to non-STEM studentsConference Paper10.24251/HICSS.2017.022
