Machine learning (ML) techniques are changing both the offensive and defensive aspects of cybersecurity. The implications are especially strong for privacy, as ML approaches provide unprecedented opportunities to make use of collected data. Thus, education on cybersecurity and AI is needed. To investigate how AI and cybersecurity should be taught together, we look at previous studies on cybersecurity MOOCs by conducting a systematic literature review. The initial search resulted in 72 items and after screening for only peer-reviewed publications on cybersecurity online courses, 15 studies remained. Three of the studies concerned multiple cybersecurity MOOCs whereas 12 focused on individual courses. The number of published work evaluating specific cybersecurity MOOCs was found to be small compared to all available cybersecurity MOOCs. Analysis of the studies revealed that cybersecurity education is, in almost all cases, organised based on the topic instead of used tools, making it difficult for learners to find focused information on AI applications in cybersecurity. Furthermore, there is a gab in academic literature on how AI applications in cybersecurity should be taught in online courses.

With the increase of the training offered in online environments over the last decade, one of the key elements in these training events is mediation as an enabler best results approval and learning achievements. In this context the role of mediation is key, especially when there is no teacher or tutor figure that is in contact with the participants. The aim of this research, that is derived from a doctoral program, is to analyze the practices of mediation in massive open online courses (MOOC) in the areas of energy sustainability and propose a mediation model that considers the open innovation as a key element. In this way answers the research question regarding the relationship between the practices of teaching and learning technological mediation with MOOC courses. The research is the result of cooperation between government institutions in Mexico such as CONACYT and SENER with the Technological Institute of Monterrey, the latter by offering 10 massive courses on the subject of energy sustainability, whose course name in spanish is: "Generación de energías y limpias y energías convencionales" [Generation of clean energy and conventional energy], and its participantes constitute the research population, who, through various instruments of qualitative and quantitative, will be consulted regarding mediation and its relationship with learning. The results of this study allow thus to answer the research question, in addition to the generation of proposals in the field of mediation that promote open innovation. It is expected that the results represent a contribution in the sense of determining the relationship mediation - outcomes of learning in MOOC courses.
