) in engineering and science hasbecome much discussed topic in the industry and also in the academia (Detroit Free Press, 2016;Burke, 2016). While the state licensure bodies monitor the professional conduct of the engineers,professional engineering bodies like National Society of Professional Engineers (NSPE) andAmerican Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) insist and expect their members to have goodmoral character and ethical integrity (NSPE, 2016; ASCE, 2012).However, the ethical contact and the professionalism of an engineer do not start with theengineer’s first assignment as a graduate engineer, but with what this individual learns inclassrooms as an engineering student and how s|he gets trained as an engineering intern.

Beforethe 30-45 minute long discussion begins, student participants all read a short scenario thatpresents some technical and non-technical details of the topic.Table 1 presents a summary of sample scenarios. As part of the EPSA, students are asked todetermine the most important problem/s and to discuss stakeholders, impacts, unknowns, andpossible solutions. Examples of the scenarios used in the EPSA are presented in Appendix A. Page 24.1349.2  Table 1. Summary of Sample ScenariosEnergy

technology.With this background, it‟s not surprising that many of our students connect to technologythrough science fiction (SciFi). This paper describes a course on artificial intelligence andscience fiction. It has been offered as a general education elective, meeting writing-intensive,literature, and ethics categories for undergraduates, and as a graduate course with semester-longprojects.Artificial intelligence (AI) presents many complex theoretical, societal and ethical issues thathave historically been examined in works of science fiction. The interplay between sciencefiction from the 1950s to the present and the development of the field of AI can be used to showhow imaginative creativity and technical innovation fueled each other.

better seethe “everyday ethics” in her workplace.Internships, along with other types of experiential learning including service learning, student-faculty research, study abroad, and capstone courses, have been identified as high-impactpractices for enriching student learning [13]. For instance, AAC&U’s College Learning for theNew Global Century notes that such experiences offer “rich opportunities for connectingknowledge with choices and action” [14, p. 36]. However, as Beatrice’s and Palano’s experiencedemonstrates, students may have “had the experience but missed the meaning” [15, p. 151,quoting T. S. Eliot’s Four Quartets].

This theory has inspired the most widely used and researched assessment tools formoral reasoning [19], such as the Defining Issues Test (DIT) by James Rest [20]. However,Kohlberg's theory has been criticized on several accounts, most notably by Carol Gilligan in the1980's as containing an implicit gender bias [21]. Emerging from Gilligan's work was theobservation that Kohlberg's theory was founded on the deontological (duty-based) philosophy of Page 22.1505.5Kant and

Traditional moral emotions discussed in the previous section appeared in ourdata (e.g., anger, disgust, guilt, pride), but students also used other expressions to describeemotions they experienced. Emotional expressions could be classified into three broad themes:subsequent negative emotions, anticipatory negative emotions, and positive emotions. Thiscategorization was influenced by Pekrun [30]’s classification of achievement emotions. Pekrunclassified achievement emotions in academic settings into activity emotions and outcomeemotions and divided the outcome emotions into prospective/anticipatory emotions andretrospective emotions based on the time at which the emotions are experienced.

University educators often debate whether plagiarism is committed willfully orunintentionally out of ignorance and research investigating this area appears equivocal.Therefore, we sought to investigate first-semester freshmen engineering students’ understandingof plagiarism at a science and technology university.Nearly 1,100 first year engineering students at a Missouri University of Science and Technology(Missouri S&T) completed an online survey and corresponding quiz designed to

andcurriculum development: the role of engineers in humanitarian activities. Additionally, reforminitiatives in science and engineering (S&E) graduate education have yet to realize their potentialfor integrating ethics into curricula. Addressing such challenges, this paper will describeactivities to date of an interdisciplinary faculty team at the Colorado School of Mines (CSM)working on the development of graduate-level curriculum in humanitarian engineering ethics(HEE). The HEE faculty team has 1) reviewed and critically assessed relations betweenhumanitarianism and engineering in order to develop an applicable concept of humanitarianethics (HE) in engineering education and practice; 2) researched barriers and opportunities in thedevelopment and
