American c Society for Engineering Education, 2021 Partnerships and Pedagogies for Introducing Neuroethics to Secondary STEM Classrooms [Poster]AbstractThe field of neurotechnology offers both great promise and potential peril, necessitating a carefulconsideration of ethical concerns. This paper shares how a partnership between education staff,precollege teachers, and philosophers enabled a Research Experience for Teachers (RET)program to center professional learning on neuroethics. This partnership supported the design ofcurriculum materials focused on the intersection of ethics, science, technology, and engineering,which integrated a
CoursesAbstractEngineering topics are increasingly being integrated into K-12 STEM education. The NextGeneration Science Standards (NGSS) integrate engineering topics into science education,including outcomes such as defining engineering problems, designing solutions, and the influenceof engineering, technology, and science on society and the natural world. The NGSS make noexplicit mention of ethics in the context of engineering, although the societal and environmentalimpacts regarding engineering are considered to be macroethical themes. Although Coloradoadapted the NGSS in K-12 education statewide, the engineering standard was not adopted. It wasof interest to determine whether Colorado high school teachers believe that it is important tointegrate ethical and/or

, lack of role models, andminimal financial support to pursue a college education. One potential reason that has yet to beexplored relates to the cultural and spiritual barriers that could deter AI/AN people from feelinga sense of belonging in engineering fields. These barriers may create obstacles to progressingthrough engineering career pathways. Our research investigates the range and variation ofcultural/spiritual/ethical issues that may be affecting AI/AN people’s success in engineering andother science, technology, and mathematics fields. The work reported here focuses on findingsfrom students and professionals in engineering fields specifically. The study seeks to answer tworesearch questions: (1) What ethical issues do AI/AN students and
FoundationsQuestionnaire (MFQ) [1] and a novel instrument focused on the intersection of technology andethics developed by faculty at Duke University. With data collected in Fall 2020, we analyzedstudent survey data and found few significant results. In summary, the suite of developedmodules that are embedded into the first-year engineering design course should lead to thedevelopment of an ethical mindset at the outset of students’ engineering education.Overview of Ethics Education in EngineeringDespite a consensus that ethics is an important topic for engineering students, its incorporationinto undergraduate courses remains mixed [2] [3] [4]. Currently, the ABET Student Outcome #4in Criterion 3 requires that graduates have “an ability to recognize ethical and
