Paper ID #37044A Framework for the Classroom Use of Science-Fiction to Enhance EthicalDesign Skills among Engineering SudentsElyas Masrour ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2023A framework for the classroom use of science-fiction to enhance ethical design skills among engineering students I. Introduction to Current Engineering Ethics Education Modern society is often at the whim of technology, and therefore at the whim of thepeople who create technology: engineers. Unfortunately, for decades, engineers have beeneducated from an almost entirely technical standpoint. Our education system

lower elementary [3]. Research suggests emerging technologies have great potential toimprove learning and help students develop an interest in science, technology, engineering, andmathematics (STEM) [1]. In essence, academia, non-profits, and for-profits have begun todevelop AI curricula and resources for pre-college education [2]. The Massachusetts Institute ofTechnology (MIT) recently released ‘The Middle School AI + Ethics Curriculum,’ whichintegrates ethics in technical lessons to develop students’ ethical design skills [2].BackgroundArtificial Intelligence in Pre-College EducationArtificial Intelligence (AI) in literature is defined as “the science and engineering of creatingintelligent machines” [4, p. 2]. AI is a branch of CS that merges

professional identity with the student and helping them in ways that didnot violate the ethical principles of engineering and teaching. The results of this interaction werethat the student made it successfully through the semester and is finishing their program in goodstanding. The final takeaways from this experience are the use of empathic mentoring, being thechange that one wishes to be in engineering education, and taking extreme ownership of one’smentoring role to develop and guide their mentees.IntroductionEngineering as a discipline has had a reputation for having a difficult curriculum where manystudents do not succeed [1]–[7]. The most recent numbers regarding engineering retention ratesfor United States universities show that approximately

parents have always beenproponents of education and the doors it can open which has shaped my work ethic. The studentswe researched helped me gain a better understanding of how I view my and others’ approach toengineering and what defines success.Coding and Analysis ProceduresDuring the analysis process researchers read through both interviews to familiarize themselveswith the data [22]. Two main researchers were involved in the coding process. These researcherscoded roughly three quarters of one interview together, and then coded the remainder of the sameinterview individually. Nearly 200 codes were created in the first pass of the first interview.These unique codes were then reduced to six collated codes for the codebook to capture theentirety

of a recent study revealed that highacademic rigor and exams were identified as the most common sources of stress amongengineering students [7]. On the other hand, personal stressors such as living away from home,peer pressure, health and financial worries should be taken into account [19]. The researchdiscovered that engineering students experiencing mental health problems are less likely to seeksupport for their mental health issues [20]. Stress and anxiety are prevalent among engineers [21]. This is a result of the nature ofengineering, characterized by its strictness, robustness, and a demanding work ethic [21]. Workpressure can have negative impacts on both physical and mental health of individuals [22].Similar to engineering
