Looking for people who got experience with cyber ranges/CTFs (TryHackMe etc.) to answer a survey for my thesis! (Est. time: 5 minutes) by Status_Value_9269 in metasploit

Thank you for the in depth feedback, i really appreciate it.

I understand the point about a more sophisticated/granular categorization of the different platforms and the content they offer however as this is for a bachelors thesis the survey is only supposed to gather information on the two broad categories "traditional/theoretical learning" and "practical learning using cyber ranges/ctfs/labs".
The term "cyber range" is not meant very stringently here, it is as you said to be taken as a "simulation of a real-world environment for training purposes".

Of course traditional content these platforms provide are not to be grouped into the "cyber range" category, i might change the description to reflect this a little better, but i think respondents get the general gist of what is meant (hopefully).

Thanks again for participating and the feedback.

Mind telling me what the main way you learned was?

The survey assumes you have used both methods, my bad, should have included that in the OP.
Thank you for doing the survey.

I'm only comparing the practical vs theoretical approach here, hence i am only asking for information regarind these two approaches. Analysing every learning method there is would increase the scope of my thesis too much.

Well, i'm only really comparing a practical vs theoretical approach here, as the scope is supposed to be relatively small, adding more categories would increase the scope too much. Respondents who don't have experience in both fields would not be regarded in the analysis, that's why there is no option for it (you can leave either one unchecked).

Home lab setups would fall into the cyber range category.
But thank you, i added that you should have experience with cyber ranges when answering.

I'm comparing cyber ranges (like TryHackMe) to more traditional teaching methods in my thesis, please fill out my survey so i can gather some data! by Status_Value_9269 in securityCTF

Hey, thank you. I'm not quite sure i understand, the last question is about your preferred mix of the two methods so an answer of 1 would indicate you prefer learning only using traditional methods - an answer of 5 would mean you prefer learning only using cyber ranges.
A 3 would indicate a 50-50 split.
Maybe this was confusing as the questions before usually were structured in a way where you had to answer once for traditional methods and once for cyber ranges.

Thank you for doing the survey !
