is designed to give students supervised practical application of previously studied theory. Inthis course, students are required to identify suffering of others (others includes the humanspecies as well as other species), design a response to the suffering and carry that action out. Theproject must involve at least 15 hours of service. Alternatively, students can explore issuesassociated with the use of animals in the research laboratory through service at the FarmSanctuary in Watkins Glen. The relevance for this project’s inclusion is based on the fact that avast majority of the new devices and drugs are first tested on a wide range of animal species.One will very often hear reference to “porcine” and “bovine” animal models in the

longitudinal, qualitative interviewdata from two distinct team members of a student design team at a large public Midwesternuniversity. These cases were selected as a subset of a larger qualitative data pool to develop aninitial understanding of the emergent nature of ethics and design. Case study research typicallyinvolves a deep inductive exploration of an emergent phenomenon and the underlying logics thatconnect relationships among and between related constructs5. Case and Light3 state case studyresearch also reveals the context dependent nature of knowledge. For the current study, we areinterested in the contextual influences of ethical reasoning and HCD understanding. Eisenhardtand Graebner5 liken case studies to laboratory experiments typically

going onto the next. At these early phases, it may besufficient for the engineers and other project staff to simply acknowledge the product-safetyissues that will be faced by the project. Although solutions will be needed before final-designrelease, a detailed plan of action may not be required yet.Phase 3 is the stage of most concern to the design-engineering team. It is here that the product isdesigned, re-designed, prototyped, analyzed, tested, and finally released to Manufacturing. Thisblock shows interactions with suppliers and the suppliers’ interactions with sub-suppliers. Thefigure shows the explicit need for testing in the field and in the laboratory. There are numerousincremental reviews of product safety during Phase 3. During these

factors contribute to the ethical practice of science andengineering- Moral upbringing? Laboratory leadership? Institutional environment-and howcould these factors be combined more effectively toward cultivating cultures of ethical STEM? For interpretation and clarity, please note that in the following figures (Figure 2-6), the top-30terms are ordered by relevance to the red highlighted “topic” (or student-responses cluster). Thelight-blue extensions of the bar graph (on the right side of each figure) indicate all the other usesof a given term in the corpus of text, i.e. all responses to the prompt. The term “tokenpercentage” is the percentage of the total terms within the selected topic in relation to all theterms captured in the corpus of text

the context of responsible laboratory behavior, and intellectual propertyrights and in the professional obligation to hold the safety and welfare of the public paramount.Teams of students are assigned dedicated space in a large laboratory shared with other teamswhere considerate and ethical behavior in this environment is stressed. One 75 minute lecturesession is typically devoted to a patent lawyer guest speaker, whose overview of intellectualproperty (IP) rights includes the ethical responsibility of honoring IP ownership. A key secondsemester engagement employs the National Institute of Engineering Ethics video, Incident atMorales, to dig deeply into the engineers’ obligations to public welfare.The engineering capstone design experience

engineering ethics dilemma.27 And in a related study, Loui usedinterview data to show how formal instructional interventions can help reinforce and expandstudent awareness of, and commitments to, social and ethical responsibility.28 Clancy, Quinn, &Miller similarly used focus groups and surveys to assess their “case study laboratory” approach,finding significant improvements in students’ awareness of ethical issues.29However, very different results emerged from Drake et al.’s comparison of two kinds of ethicsinstruction, namely a full semester ethics course and an engineering course that included anethics module.30 Their results, based on DIT-2 scores, showed that neither approach resulted insignificant improvement in students’ moral development

reflection and/or discussion; constructing a timeline of the history of neuroethics;and perspective taking by brainstorming the needs of potential end-users of a device or therapy.In addition, some lesson plans included opportunities for more structured discussion andargumentation, including Socratic Seminars [19] and Philosophical Chairs [20].Embedding teachers into a neuroethics research group. Another strategy for deeplyintegrating the study of neuroethics into the RET program was to embed science teachers into theneuroethics research group as apprentice researchers. The CNT’s neuroethics research group ledby co-author Dr. Sara Goering already had an established history of embedding philosophers intoCNT engineering laboratories in order to

Yet they rarely find a way to connect course content with socialproblems, particularly those related to SJ. For example, and existing REU Site grant titled “FluidMechanics with Analysis using Computations and Experiments” is aimed at mentoringundergraduate students in “the current need for basic and applied research in fluid mechanicsacross a range of engineering disciplines as well as the training of undergraduate students instate-of-the-art laboratory environments.” And in traditional fashion, the grant justifies meetingCriterion 2 “by enhancing and diversifying the pool of students considering a research career inengineering
