about them; some of these questions were: (1) what is notsustainable about their homes; (2) how our infrastructure can be more sustainable; and (3) whatthe correlations between sustainability from social, economic and environmental perspectivesare. Another example from a previous implementation was in an Ethics course, where studentsposted an image on Instagram that responds to what is ethics from an engineering perspectiveand how would a project manager's office include unethical/biased resources.
