The paper is theresult of early steps in the implementation of a longer-term, NSF-funded research project thatextends the inquiry to the development of students’ understanding of ethics over the entire arc oftheir undergraduate educational experience [1].Our argument unfolds in five steps. In the section that follows this introduction, we situate ourinquiry within the broader field of engineering ethics research, connecting in particular to workon “macroethics” [2] as it intersects with scholarly work in our primary fields of science andtechnology studies (STS) and engineering studies.

The learning objectives for STS 4500and STS 4600 (hereby referred to as STS 4500/4600) are, “engaging students with the challengeof framing and solving engineering problems in a manner that requires attention to socialdimensions. Students are introduced to STS theories and methods as a means to prepare them fortheir STS research papers.” The STS research papers are bound with the student’s technicalreport and together constitute their senior thesis requirement for graduation. Given that student’stechnical research varies, that students utilize different STS frameworks and methods (given theinterdisciplinary nature of the field).

Still other recent efforts suggest growing awareness for howengineering students’ pre-college experiences may impact their further ethical development.

To best support Migrant Students (and all students in EPIC), it is very important that Lab Instructors create an inclusive environment by encouraging respect for and celebration of differences, create a positive learning environment, and allow students to demonstrate their individual knowledge. Here are eight best practices for working with diverse groups of students, including migrant students: 1. Ensure good visuals on presentations that can support students who are English- language learners. Example: Show lab set-ups and activities with pictures in addition to explaining through words. 2.
