drug [Topol, 2004].Using these back stories, we created a series of scenarios along with questions. We framed eachquestion so as to obscure its origin while potentially allowing the student to draw out and discussa decision error of systems engineering. Why not simply give students descriptions of the failuresand the findings we discussed and have the students evaluate them? First, we wanted to eliminatebias due to students being familiar with a particular failure. For example, the Space ShuttleChallenger accident is a frequent topic in engineering ethics lectures. A learned, in-context,response from a previous exposure would not give us an indication of their abilities in systemsengineering. Second, the point of framing a question around a
