task at the touch of a button is just crazy. Another thing that intrigues me about Computer Security and Information Assurance is the amount of problem solving that it involves. It seems as though there is never a day when a new problem arises. New problems mean new ways of solving problems. Every day a CSIA major learns something. Norwich University stated that Computer Security and Information Assurance is the “...kind of job that never gets stale, and [it] protects our country and private…

Middle school teachers, as subject-area experts, understandably prefer to focus on teaching students the content in their discipline rather than teaching them literacy skills. Guthrie and Klauda’s (2012) research found that “nearly one-half of middle school students find science textbooks intimidating” (p.66). As educators we…
