Building reusable information security courseware

Well-designed courseware improves teaching effectiveness and encourages active learning. This paper reports our experience in developing a multimedia and interactive courseware for an information security course in our distance education program as well as course supplementary materials for our on-site information security courses. The courseware emphasizes interactivity and reusability, following common cognitive principles and pedagogical methods.
