research questions themselves (e.g., What is the underlyingassumptions beneath the questions that are being asked? Who defines the system of study?)Objective research is best utilized in the study of inanimate objects which can be manipulatedwith fewer ethical concerns; However, it is less applicable to human systems where manipulationand control of human subjects raises ethical questions. In action research, the aim is to serve thecreation of the desired outcome. In our case, our research was initiated with the intent of creatingsocial value toward thriving communities. The result of action research is “meaning,” derivedthrough reflexive contemplation of the patterns, to include the thought patterns of theresearchers, who are themselves subjects

But in doing so, what should the guiding principles of students’behavior with communities be?4. Theory 2: How should engineers behave with communities?In a different writing, we have shown how engineering ethics benefit the relationships thatengineers have with corporate employers while not serving as appropriate guides in theirrelationship with communities. [22] To overcome the limitations of engineering ethics (the codesand the forms in which they are taught), we developed a set of criteria for socially responsibleengineering (SRE), which I highlight here with examples of how students began developingthese

This STEM workshop was devoted tobuilding curiosity among the students and increasing their likelihood to seek a future in theSTEM field. This workshop proposed many challenges given the virtual environment. Thestudents who attended the conference were a group of high school students from FranklinMilitary Academy in Richmond, VA. Due to the COVID-19 restrictions put in place, theworkshop was held completely virtually through Google Classroom.This workshop was a conglomerate of ethics, diversity, and STEM discussions led by theDepartment of Civil and Mechanical Engineering as well as the Department of Social Sciences atthe United

This workinvolves praxis—confronting oppression and injustice through learning, action, and repeatedreflection on the ways actions reverberate into society [11]. Anti-oppressive practices stem fromself-reflexivity and introspection that aims to align actions with the values and ethics of thework.Community engaged work enlists those who are most affected by a community issue. This canbe in collaboration or partnership with others who have particular skills or resources with thegoal of devising strategies to resolve it. Community engaged work adds to or replacesprogramming done on community members with programs done

These aims remove some of the pressures andexpectations that can be present in programs and trips that are built around implementation10as well as potential ethical questions about unqualified engineering students working onimplementation projects in overseas countries11.
