Sandra Day O’Connor Institute Announces Initiative to Produce New Research on Civics
PHOENIX, September 12, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The Sandra Day O'Connor Institute for American Democracy today announced an initiative to support new research on civics and also published its premier policy brief, titled New Evidence on Trickle-Down and Trickle-Up Influences in Civic Education and Engagement.
Conducted by Kirsten Slungaard Mumma, Ph.D., assistant professor of Economics and Education at Teachers College, Columbia University, the brief evaluated K-12, birth, and voting records for over 580,000 students from the state of Indiana. It found evidence of significant trickle-down (mother-to-child) and trickle-up (child-to-mother) relationships in civic education and engagement. Children whose mothers voted in the previous presidential election, for example, were 20.3 percentage points more likely to vote in their first election. That indicates a 64% increase in the probability of voting.
The brief found that trickle-up relationships—in which the political behavior of children influences that of their mothers—are also broadly significant but are largest for non-white children and children who qualify for free and reduced-price lunch. This suggests a pathway for "spillover effects" for civic education and engagement interventions, meaning these interventions could improve civic outcomes not only for students but also for their families.
"These findings are novel, major, and exciting," said Institute Director of Public Policy Liam Julian. "They will be of serious interest to national, state, and local elected representatives; to social scientists; to educators; and, of course, to parents and their children."
New Evidence on Trickle-Down and Trickle-Up Influences in Civic Education and Engagement is the first of several policy briefs and research reports on civics that the O'Connor Institute will publish over the coming months and years.
"High-quality research in civics is especially crucial now," said Matt Feeney, chair of the O'Connor Institute's Board of Directors. "We are honored to carry forward the civics legacy of Justice O'Connor by investing resources in creating new civics knowledge to help inform our nation's parents, educators, civic leaders, and public policy decision-makers."

CYRIN Introduces Two New Labs in Its Growing IT and DevOps Section
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., September 13, 2023 (Newswire.com) - The CYRIN Cybersecurity Platform has introduced two new labs: Windows Operating Systems Fundamentals for Systems Administrators and Exploring the Windows and Linux Command Lines.
CYRIN's Newest Lab
CYRIN has an expanding IT and DevOps section and has introduced two new labs in that category. The newest lab, called Windows Operating Systems Fundamentals for Systems Administrators, is where students will learn the fundamentals of the Microsoft Management Console (MMC) for device and disk management. Here they will learn how to view events, manage users and user groups, and schedule tasks. They will also learn about the Windows Registry and how to view and change registry settings.
Why it's Important
This is important because Systems Administrators are constantly solving problems. They support, troubleshoot, and maintain computer servers and networks, and they are the professionals who make sure an organization's computer systems are functioning and meet the needs of the organization.
This new lab is mapped to NIST NICE Specialty Areas and NIST NICE Work Roles.

Work Roles:
CYRIN's Second New Lab - Exploring the Windows and Linux Command Lines
This lab explores the Linux and Windows command lines, powerful tools that allow software developers, system administrators, and users to quickly and efficiently perform tasks without the need for a graphical user interface (GUI).
Command line interfaces eliminate the need for scrolling through and clicking on GUI tabs and dialogs. The ability to use the command line is essential for managing Linux servers that typically do not have graphical user interfaces. Many features of an operating system are only accessible through the command line, allowing you to harness the full power of the system. Furthermore, system administrators can use the command line to remotely control machines, automate tasks, and perform system maintenance.
This lab is also mapped to NIST NICE Specialty Areas and NIST NICE Work Roles.
Specialty Areas:
Work Roles:
CYRIN is designed for the seasoned cybersecurity professional or the student new to the field. Inexpensive and tailored for a 24/7 schedule, CYRIN labs, exercises and attack scenarios allow for training in a virtual cloud-based environment 365 days a year. Businesses can also use it as a test bed for new products. To learn more about CYRIN's content, visit our catalog page.
