The ethical issues involve thework of engineers, but the topics also fall within the realms of philosophy, politics, economics,law, sociology, and psychology. The ethical issues are as follows:1. New transportation corridors through neighborhoods. Commerce depends on an efficient transportation system, but how should society balance public interest and individuals’ rights?2. SUVs. SUVs are very prevalent on roadways now, but should they vanish?3. Agricultural enhancements. To feed a growing world population, should society employ all available technological agricultural advances or adhere to natural practices?4. Space

Unfortunatelythe technology surrounding the gene enables farmers to grow their crops but not recover theseeds to be planted for the next growing season. The gene alters the crop so that the seeds cannot germinate, forcing farmers wishing to grow the crop to purchase new seeds every year inorder to continue growing the genetically engineered crop. This practice provides customers tothe companies, creating a “monopolists dream.”7 Instead of using the genetic modification of thecrop to produce an improved food supply, the gene increases the farmer’s dependence on theproducing company.BSE senior year: course implementationThis is a good opportunity for

Through our analysis we aim to show that (i) conversational analysis tools can behelpful for understanding perspective-taking and (ii) perspective-taking is entangled withstudents’ epistemic and moral stances towards a situation and (iii) often, perspective-taking canbe limited and partial

This paper describes the planning and actions thus far to meet these new requirementsat the university and specifically in our engineering programs. We have begun to expandoutcome assessment to include five “intellectual and practical skills,” specifically, critical andcreative thinking, inquiry/analysis, problem-solving, and information literacy. VALUE rubricsare being used as part of the process to ascertain where the best opportunities are to measurestudent achievement within the engineering and technology programs. An assessment frameworkis presented and successful pilot results are discussed.The ChallengeOur regional
