Engineering Ethics

work explores engineering ethics empirically in a “developing world” context through aframework of care ethics. Care ethics, a.k.a., the ethic(s) of care, is particularly suitable for the“developing world” context because it helps draw attention to imbalances of power (e.g.,inequality, differential opportunity, and limitations on autonomy) that are often neglected byother ethical frameworks. In this work, we selected one element of care ethics (responsibility)and operationalized it in several ways: the language of responsibility; notions of paternalism; andawareness of key, influencing stakeholders. These lenses were developed and refined iterativelyby employing them in case study analyses of two design project reports written by teams

a key source of successfulinnovations; thus, techniques to support creative conceptual design are imperative in engineeringeducation. However, teaching students to “think innovatively” has been difficult becauseeducators lack effective instructional methods. While there are a variety of proposed methods foridea generation, only one has been empirically validated in multiple scientific studies: DesignHeuristics. Design Heuristics are prompts that guide designers in exploring the design spaceduring concept generation. In empirical studies in engineering and design classrooms, DesignHeuristics have been shown to be readily adopted by students, and to result in more creative, andmore diverse, concepts.The focus of this project is to create a

Besides the thematic congruence, another thing that caught our attention was that bothstudents regarded drone warfare to have negative consequences but, to different degrees, wantedto absolve the designing engineers of bearing responsibility.One of us
