Thismethodology was tested throughout three semesters with undergraduate students in acommunity-engaged Architectural Technology course.IntroductionIn August 2015, I began an ethnographic study at a large, urban, Midwestern University on how,if at all, concerns with ethics were expressed within an architectural technology course forinterior design majors. Entitled Commercial Construction, the course utilized community-engaged pedagogy. My research aimed to identify whether and, if so, how ethical thought

These STEMnights are amazing; however, one challenge with these events is that they are geared towards alarger audience (e.g., >50 people per event) for a short duration (e.g., 15-60 min) and the briefcontact time may not be sufficient to truly inspire potential young scientists and engineers oreducate them about engineering and the engineering design process.

Instead, Romero Rodriguez used the gamificationaspects of Nearpod to deliver instruction on the engineering curriculum to two of their threecourse sections, with the last section receiving instruction as traditional lectures. They found thevast majority (98%) preferred the gamification instruction used in Nearpod to the traditionalmethods.

CircuitsIntroductionAt the University of Idaho, an intermediate circuits course is required before students can takejunior-level classes. However, most community colleges only offer a first course in circuits, sotransfer students are immediately behind in their academic progression. One way to address thisis to develop an online lecture course with a suite of labs that a student can perform beforecoming to the university, say over the summer, so that the student can be on-track for graduation.In addition, as the number of online courses grows, these labs can be used by students whocannot come to campus.In our curriculum, the intermediate electrical engineering lecture and laboratory course beginswith sinusoidal sources, then introduces the students to steady

Students expressed that theirundergraduate and graduate programs overly emphasized technical skills while neglectingprofessional development, communication skills, and ethics training. We found that thesecurricular priorities affected students’ perception of the culture of academic engineeringdepartments and, subsequently, shaped their own professional values and understanding ofengineers’ duty to society.Despite a handful of students viewing ethics as an unnecessary distraction to their curriculum,the majority expressed a desire for more expansive professional and ethics training
