The study will be a desk research that will concentrate on the published reports and released case studies. The researcher will review various aspects of digital education initiatives, by looking at how it has enhanced awareness on cybercrime in Kenya. It will touch on various kinds of digital education, their level of application, how they are used to promote awareness on cybercrime among the Kenyan youth. The researcher will explore existing data from the previous research and existing public documents together data relating to the study topic. The research method of desk research is appropriate for this study since the topic of cybercrime has got very many publications and other public journals that can be used to inform the study. In this study, the primary objective of desk review will be to identify relevant data sources, assess the quality of data, and identify gaps where further research may be needed. The information obtained from this study will be informative and it’s expected to help policy makers in education towards improving learning programs and contents in digital education. The study will explore the Rational Choice Theory which suggests that individuals engage in computer crime because they believe it is a profitable and low-risk activity and the learning theory of cybercrime which states that the offenders in a cybercrime often learn the sophisticated techniques by associating with other online deviant peers. The study is therefore expected to be very informative to the youths in Kenya towards combating cybercrime cases. | |
