I’m about to finish my first year of college studying IT. My initial goal was to earn a certificate in Cybersecurity since my school offers it and I’ve been interested in the field since high school.

I'm just reaching out to the Reddit world. My boss is having a school group come to my workplace and wants me to do a presentation on what I.T. is and what we do. Do you guys have any suggestions to make IT fun in front of a group of 75 school-age kids? He wants it to be interactive and possibly show them computer parts, no presentation apparently. I appreciate your guy's thoughts! submitted by /u/Broad_Stable_4908 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
