This paper details the practice our diverse design team used to iteratively design, develop, and implement a culturally responsive, technology-enhanced cryptology and cybersecurity curriculum during the COVID pandemic. Our work highlights how our team developed partnerships with afterschool teachers to empowered them to make choices about curriculum implementation and design, and how our team used their feedback and choices to iteratively modify and develop the curriculum.
