Abstract

This study examines the design, development, and evaluation of a cyber safety and security literacy program (CSLP) aimed at enhancing cyber security competency (CSC) among prospective teachers. Utilizing a research and development (R&D) method, the program was structured using the analysis, design, development, implementation, evaluation (ADDIE) model to create instructional modules covering key cyber safety topics. The validity of the program was ensured through expert evaluations, and its effectiveness was tested via a pre-experimental research design with a single group of 50 prospective teachers from training colleges in Kerala, India. Pre- and post-test assessments were conducted using a standardized CSC scale. Statistical analysis, including t-tests and Cohen’s d, revealed a significant improvement in participants’ CSC, with a large effect size (Cohen’s d=4.32), indicating the program’s substantial impact. This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating structured cyber safety education into teacher training programs to bridge the gap between digital engagement and online safety. The findings also highlight the broader need for integrating cyber security literacy in professional contexts to foster responsible digital behavior.

Abstract

This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a module-based intervention program called cyber safety and security literacy program (CSLP) on cyber etiquette among prospective teachers. The entire study was divided into two major sections, namely: i) design and development of the CSLP; and ii) assessing the impact of the program. For the design, the research and development (RD) method was used. To assess the impact of the program a quasi-experimental design was followed. Pre-experimental research with a one group pre-test and post-test design was adopted to measure the impact. The convenience sampling method was adopted for the selection of the sample. 50 prospective teachers from various training colleges in India participated in the study. The cyber etiquette scale with 50 items (Cronbach’s α=0.889) and valid (Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) value=0.804) used for this purpose. The study’s findings highlight the effectiveness of the intervention in promoting responsible digital behavior, evidenced by the substantial improvements in participants’ pre-test and post-test scores. The strong positive correlation (r=0.74) and large effect size (Cohen’s d=5.16) confirm the program’s success in fostering higher levels of cyber safety awareness and ethical online conduct.
