learn and experience. Similar discrepancies between faculty andstudents have been seen in previous studies of engineering ethics education [6]. In this paper we ask: 1) What methods do teachers choose to use most often in teaching CSR? 2) What methods are most clearly recognized by students and in what courses? 3) Given student and faculty concerns, what are previous pedagogical methods from ethics literature that may be most effective for teaching CSR? CSR is a broad term encompassing the many ways that corporations attempt to accommodate theneed for maximizing profit and taking into account the needs and wellbeing of the community andenvironment [1]. CSR can be used as a method for teaching macroethics to engineering

toreally grapple with the material effects that environmental contamination can have forcommunities who live in environmental sacrifice zones. Using these concepts in the classroomcan pull students into deep conversations about ethics and responsibility and emphasize the needfor more far-reaching visions of technical communication and community engagement, likethose explored in recent work on Socially Responsible Engineering [5].In this paper, we focus particularly on what we call systems theories and material vibrancy andenchantment theories. For each of these, we offer a synopsis of several key insights, texts, andimplications. Then, we show the utility of the approach in question to advance importantpedagogical goals related to ethics and

They [23] explain how that disrupts the“technical/social dualism in engineering” which eventually leads to the complications of thestudents’ understanding of “what it means to be an engineer, what engineers do, and whatconstitutes engineering knowledge and expertise”. Niles et al [23, p.6] further explain howthis “created difficulties for students as they contended with conflicting conceptions ofengineering knowledge and practice”.Moreover, the findings of Niles et al [23], along with others that describe how

Seemingly, students come in with a moreintegrated understanding of the technical and social dimensions in problems but learn throughthe curriculum what is valued and what is not in an engineering degree and profession [7], [10],[11

This is concerning since few (if any) of the definitionsfor computational thinking mention anything vaguely sociopolitical, such as ethics, social justice,cultural competency [7], or global competency [8].1 Even though computational thinkers areexpected to shift between varying levels of abstraction [10], the omissions imply thatsociopolitical concerns are auxiliary to thinking computationally and, potentially, to being acomputer scientist. If computational thinking is as central to computing pedagogy as researcherssuggest, then there should be concern that the assimilation of students into

, open-ended problems are definedas potentially ill-defined, ambiguous, potentially lacking critical information, having manypotential solutions, and multiple potential courses of action to reach these solutions. Open-endedproblem solving, i.e., engineering judgment, then, is the ability to navigate the complexity ofopen-ended problems. Paretti et al. [7] defines engineering judgment as students’ ability to weighcosts and benefits to select among competing options based on disciplinary values andstakeholders’ values. Pantazidou and Nair [8] describe this as an “ethic of care” and draw on anexample of a vertical lift bridge design case to illustrate these dynamics. Shaw et al.

Research on engineering culture suggests that we must look inside theengineering classroom in order to understand why engineering in the U.S. remains largely whiteand largely male [2], [3]. In order to successfully increase diversity in engineering in asustainable and ethical way, we must not only examine but work to change the culture ofengineering. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated challenges around diversityand inclusion in engineering, but also provided an opportunity to either challenge or uphold thedimensions of engineering culture as courses and programs underwent rapid change.
