Heath has wanted a Wii since around last September. While he had wanted one for Christmas, he instead got one for his birthday. So, it was a great surprise. He was thrilled; he loves it! I'm thrilled...I *ALSO* love it! The interactive sports are incredible.

While I was watching Noah and Heath play it, it occurred to me that it would be fantastic to create an interactive information security and privacy awareness activity using this type of technology. This would really engage people, and they would use a different part of their brain to do these types of activities. The concepts for protecting information would be stored in more than one location of the brain...security and privacy considerations could be instilled to being almost intuitive...or at least a reflexive consideration. I have so many ideas about this...so many possibilities...! :)

Well, the main point I want to make is that you should think outside the box when planning awareness activities and communications...Wii should think outside of the box! (Okay, I'll stop with the puns.)

Always remember that there are three types of learners in your organization; visual learners, audio learners and kinesthetic ("hands-on") learners. You need to do more than just provide communications to your visual learners...this is a mistake that most organizations make.

If you are not communicating to all your learners your security and privacy education efforts will not be as effective as they could be.

Be creative and think about all the possible ways in which you can also provide audio communications and hands-on activities within your information security and privacy awareness efforts. The possibilities are limited only by your own imagination!
