AbstractThis paper builds on the ethical aspects of an introductory engineering course — BR200 — anIntroduction to Biomedical and Rehabilitation Engineering. Various details of this course havebeen presented at ASEE Conferences in 2011, 2019 and here in 20211,2,3 and elsewhere.4 Thecourse structure was described in 2011; one ethical innovation (story-writing) in 2019; and herein 2021 the didactic changes needed to adapt to a partial or full online presence as the result ofthe COVID pandemic. This present paper focuses on the impact of the COVID-19 on theteaching strategy used to introduce and discuss medical engineering ethical issues within theclass as it

New York City Department of Transportation (NYCDOT) has employed the ManhattanTraffic Model that fails to disaggregate transportation data by gender (Perez, 2019), therebyplacing an extra burden on caregivers, predominantly female care workers, who must take multiplebuses to navigate the city's periphery. Software systems used for policing that deploy predictivealgorithms like Chicago's Strategic Subject List (SSL) disproportionately target African Americanindividuals and neighborhoods for increased policing (Brayne 2017; Ferguson 2017; Karppi 2018;Sheehey 2018).

The four universities included one private, religiousuniversity (Brigham Young University) and three public universities (Arizona State University,Colorado School of Mines, and Purdue University). Of those 757 students, 111 were selected forsemi-structured interviews in Spring 2016. In our final phase of data collection in Spring 2019,we interviewed 33 of the 111 interviewees again using a
