Consequently, the educational practice could benefit from the outcomes of such research.

Specifically,we present students with content describing the scenario, facts, scope of impact, and othergeneral information. As the ultimate focus of the case is for students to justify the ethicality ofcontinuing deep-water drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, we prime students to keep the followingprompt in mind as they work through the case content: “There are overlapping technical andethical questions to consider here: How can we prevent future disasters like the DeepwaterHorizon disaster? Should we be engineering ways to drill in the Gulf of Mexico?” Following thispreliminary text, the case opens with a narrative video that

For the point/counterpointassignment in this experiment, the first team chose a case study that was related to the topic ofthe engineering class. The students were asked to write a point/counterpoint essay and discusstheir opinions in class. Upon completion of the point/counterpoint study, the students were askedto complete a survey to gauge how effective this method of ethics teaching was, as well asdetermine reactions to the assignment. In addition to the point/counterpoint assignment, the first team also developed a heuristicsassignment for the same senior-level class. A six step analysis method was adapted from varioussources10-13

Students who are learning about one small portion of the design process—in astructural steel design course, for example—need to be reminded that decisions made during thedesign phase often have significant but invisible consequences over the lifetime of the facility.A fifth and final topic related to PtD is comparisons of public policy around the globe.

The very crux of engineeringanalysis and the hallmark of every successful engineer is the ability to make shrewd and viableapproximations which greatly simplify the system and still lead to a rapid, reasonably accurateprediction of its behavior.Figure 3. Illustration of philosophy behind the freshman level programming course driven by model-baseddesign.One such model studied in the course is projectile motion. Most freshman engineering studentsare familiar with projectile motion from high school or freshman level introductory physicscourses. This familiarity is important as the student’s mind should not be overwhelmed withcomplex physical systems while trying to grasp the problem
