Paper ID #6145Lessons Learned from Teaching with an Ethics ToolkitDr. Martin S. High, Oklahoma State University Dr. Marty High is an associate professor of Chemical Engineering at Oklahoma State University. His academic interests include teaching in all areas and at all levels of chemical engineering with a focus on instruction in thermodynamics and mass transfer. His research interests are in the areas of mass transfer in polymeric systems, corrosion modeling, equation of state development and refinery catalysis. Marty also writes in the area of sustainability and on the intersection of law, science and society. He
1: Coding SchemeWhat professorate is teaching the course?Towards what engineering discipline is the class intendedWho is the targeted audience?Is the course required for these students?What is the duration of the course?What is the stated learning goal(s)?If there is a stated learning goal, was it met?What type of content is included in the course?What sorts of pedagogy are employed?How does the instructor assess student learning?What research strategies are used to measure transferability?What ethical theory(ies) must students consider? Deductive coding was used when I brought pre-conceived notions of items to be includedin categories. For example, I used Haws (2001) findings for pedagogical nomenclature, includingthe following

from inside academia and especially from many professors who seem not to thinktwice about their commitment to this philosophy. This argument coincides with deeper cuts inuniversities‟ budgets. Universities are trying to compensate these cuts by increasing fundingfrom private groups willing to “help academia to achieve its goals” being the private sector,claiming an “ad-hoc” education. The loud calls to align industry and businesses with academia seem to be reasonablebased on economic constraints on both sides and the fact that “our students will benefit from it.”Another strong argument in favor of the social benefit of the alignment of business‟s needs, andcollege curriculum is the fact that our worldwide competitiveness will improve
the movie(s) by holding discussion sessions (held by the instructor, assistant, oramong students themselves) for those videos that had a pertaining assignment. Moreover,the instructor provided detailed assignment questions and requirements that directlytargeted the course objectives covered by the watched videos. This role was reflected Page 23.1193.5slightly by the students’ perceptions to the importance of holding post-video discussion sessions and by their performance on the written assignments. However, the analysis of this role will not be analyzed in depth in this study as it is beyond the main scope. Before responding to the questionnaire

surveys in all but category j). Both UND and CC students reportedhigher rates of direct homework set copying than those seen by McCabe. From open-endedcomments about cheating included in the student responses, this is likely due to the pressures thatstudents are feeling for high workloads and other intra- or extra-curricular activities. In addition,several comments felt that the homework sets assigned were ‘busy work’ and not that crucial tostudent learning. Therefore, the conclusion may be drawn that students do not feel as unethicalabout copying homework and justify those feelings with their active lives and similar feelingsfrom their peers.Categories k) – s) dealt with plagiarism in several forms.
