Like more like an actual person.Brittany’s multiplistic understanding of ethics is situated in her focus on the user. That is,focusing on the user forced inclusion of multiple possibilities for the “right” way to proceed indesign. This finding suggests the possible relationship between a human-centered focus andhigher order orientations in ethical development. Furthermore, the context of the service-learningcourse possibly shaped this integrated view of ethics and HCD. The course, in her estimation,provided a view of the user that shifted

While the EPS method produceswell-posed problems with easily checked solutions, it unintentionally reinforces the worldviewthat engineering is value-free profession where the rigor of one’s technical analysis is moreimportant than the context in which engineering is practiced1. Recognizing this consequence, agrowing body of literature calls for changing engineering education to be more human-centeredthrough awareness of the limitations of purely technical solutions2-5.Changing one’s approach to teaching in this way poses big challenges: how to add ideas to anoverstuffed curriculum—particularly ideas that involve a disciplinary background different
