aresponsibility to expose students to the importance of ethics and consciousness in their decisionand design making process. The Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET)reinforces the need for teaching ethics in engineering programs with the inclusion of learningoutcomes that address ethics. The new ABET Outcome 4 requires students have “An ability torecognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informedjudgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic,environmental, and societal contexts” [1]. One method of teaching about ethics in engineering isto use case-studies of engineering disasters where there was room for a different ethical decisionto be made. This

The meta-analysis of225 studies on active-learning by Freeman, et al [1] found students in STEM courses taught withextensive lecturing are 1.5 times more likely to fail, earn a D, or withdraw from the course thanstudents taught with active-learning methods in the same STEM course subject. A second meta-analysis of engineering and technology education journal articles confirmed that small-group andcollaborative learning pedagogies increased student performance by close to a half a
