These results led to four conclusions: 1) ethically, the use oftools such as ChatGPT without acknowledging that they have been used is cheating, 2) it will beimpossible to stop students from using tools like ChatGPT, but unacknowledged use can bedetected, albeit with a very high percentage of false positives, 3) use of AI tools should beencouraged rather than discouraged, and 4) higher education should focus on new methods andmechanisms for assessing student learning that take advantage of the AI tools.IntroductionArtificial Intelligence (AI) has made enormous strides during the past few years. It has becomepossible for AI to provide answers to essay questions on exams, generate good discussion boardposts in online

Students will have asurvey to determine what type of moral reasoning they adopt when they face an ethical dilemma.Students will be presented with an ethical decision-making scenario and answer it based on theirown individuality. The pre and post activity reflections will be compared to verify any changesin perspective in addressing the dilemma. The EM component to this decision-making activity isnot only mimicking decision-making situations as entrepreneurs, but it also includes thediscussion of the entrepreneurial mindset framework to either

operation arebecoming complex. To correctly manage uncertainties in protecting the public, it is critical totake long-term preventive measures by regulating mobility engineering practices in deliveringautonomous driving solutions. To date, the lack of licensure for all mobility engineers remainsone of the significant challenges. As we investigated NCEES exam products in the civilengineering domain, none of the exams are targeting the unique knowledge base and skillsrequirements for a mobility engineer profession. Without an effective mechanism to regulate thisemerging occupation, ethical practice and quality assurance of engineering projects could beundermined. In this study, we investigated the current educational programs, job market,requirements

teamsAbstractPsychological safety is emerging in the literature as a gateway to creating high performing teamsand high team satisfaction. Studies have demonstrated that psychological safety is a keyingredient in the ability of teams to perform to a higher degree than they otherwise would be ableto. In this research, we continue to expand the assessment of psychological safety in seniorcapstone teams to include data from engineering programs across four different institutions toprovide a sense of the experiences on capstone design teams and impacts interventions mayhave. We also begin to explore approaches to improve psychological safety in senior capstoneteams by focusing on improving students’ awareness of their ethics (the principles that guidetheir choices). The
