, all one has to do is torelax, make love, and hope: no devices, pharmaceuticals, instruments, or interveningprocedures are required. For others, however, the quest to birth a child can beemotionally arduous and financially taxing. According to the Centers for Disease Controland Prevention, up to 15 percent of couples are ‘unable to conceive a child with frequent,unprotected sexual intercourse over the course of a year,’ which categorizes them asbeing infertile [1]. Approximately 35% of infertility is due to male factors; 35% is due tofemale factors; 20% of cases have a combination of both male and female factors; and thelast 10% are unexplained causes [2] Many such individuals, and same-sex couples, havebeen successfully aided by laboratory

going onto the next. At these early phases, it may besufficient for the engineers and other project staff to simply acknowledge the product-safetyissues that will be faced by the project. Although solutions will be needed before final-designrelease, a detailed plan of action may not be required yet.Phase 3 is the stage of most concern to the design-engineering team. It is here that the product isdesigned, re-designed, prototyped, analyzed, tested, and finally released to Manufacturing. Thisblock shows interactions with suppliers and the suppliers’ interactions with sub-suppliers. Thefigure shows the explicit need for testing in the field and in the laboratory. There are numerousincremental reviews of product safety during Phase 3. During these

factors contribute to the ethical practice of science andengineering- Moral upbringing? Laboratory leadership? Institutional environment-and howcould these factors be combined more effectively toward cultivating cultures of ethical STEM? For interpretation and clarity, please note that in the following figures (Figure 2-6), the top-30terms are ordered by relevance to the red highlighted “topic” (or student-responses cluster). Thelight-blue extensions of the bar graph (on the right side of each figure) indicate all the other usesof a given term in the corpus of text, i.e. all responses to the prompt. The term “tokenpercentage” is the percentage of the total terms within the selected topic in relation to all theterms captured in the corpus of text

added as an extradimension?Pragmatism is an overall way of thinking, one that Dewey used effectively in spelling outhow education and democracy work together, and for taking action in education. Dewey’spragmatism produced concrete results such as the laboratory schools, which pioneered theprogressive early education movement, and emphasizes teaching principles in contextthrough practice.Pragmatism and the ethic of care can be translated into engineering practice, and includedin the way we teach engineering and science in the early part of the curriculum forexample. Students should be made aware that science is dynamic, and that knowledgechanges. We do not normally convey this when teaching science. The pragmatic waywould say that rather than

member of the SPE Health,Safety, Security, Environment, and Social Responsibility (HSSE-SR) Advisory Committee. Inthe course, phase behavior, density, viscosity, interfacial tension, and composition of oil, gas,and brine systems are discussed. Course curriculum includes laboratory measurements,interpretation of lab data for engineering applications, flash calculations with k-values andequation of state and an introduction to fluid property software. CSR had previously not beentaught in the course, as it focused on the technical curriculum. In Fall 2016, CSR was introducedto the class through one assignment in which students watched a video about Chevron’s AlderGas Field Project and answered questions about Chevron’s Health, Safety, Security
