Responsibly navigating the cyber threats of the online world is a critical life skill that needs to be incorporated into the curriculum every day. For example, programming and using camera drones outside is great, as long as privacy concerns are addressed. A student testing their drone skills at home could inadvertently violate a neighbor’s privacy if their drone’s camera peers into the neighbor’s home. These are privacy
