Engineering Ethics
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

engineering can informfuture educators in this field, reducing time spent surveying available technologies and pointingtowards strategies shown to be effective in this context.Tags: Engineering Education, Structural Design, Structural Analysis, Mixed-Mode Instruction,Remote InstructionIntroduction Engineering education is generally considered an active learning domain that consists oflectures with labs, design builds, prototype testing, and other instructional modalities. During theCOVID-19 pandemic, engineering courses in the United States were forced to abruptly pivot fromvaried, active delivery strategies to remote-learning environments [1]. Challenges during COVIDdelivery included necessary modification of lab courses to online venues, a

However, to truly give students a solid foundationin surveying education, it is valuable to expose them to related technology such as GeographicInformation Systems, Global Positioning Systems, and Digital Terrain Modeling. Thesetechnologies utilize spatial data to help make informed engineering decisions and may be evenmore likely than
