The “Ethics Acrossthe Curriculum” workshop was a continuation of a personal interest in teaching ethics (I alsoattended the NSF “Teaching Research Ethics” Workshop at the Poynter Center, IndianaUniversity during the summer of 1996).This paper describes the handouts, homework questions, examination questions, and in-classdiscussions included in the ethics component of the two Materials Science courses, MSM 454and MSM 855. (I’ll focus on incorporating ethics into Materials Science courses, so I will notdiscuss the general freshman engineering course EGR 291, although teaching EGR 291 wascertainly an interesting experience.)

Besides teaching, the Sovietexperts spent a significant portion of their time developing teaching materials and textbooks, whichresulted in the publication of dozens of textbooks in Chinese. Finally, the Soviet experts advisedTsinghua leaders in reviving the university’s research capacity, which had been in a halted statusduring the early 1950s. Soviet scientists and engineers participated in committees and meetingsthat developed strategies in different areas of research. Furthermore, a number of Soviet expertscollaborated with Tsinghua faculty and students in building laboratories and libraries, and in thedesign and conducting of research experiments.Compare to the limited numbers of elite American and European professors

[1].Along with class time schedules packed with lectures, laboratories, and tutorials, there are asignificant number of course assignments that occur outside of class, such as team-basedprojects and experiential learning tasks [1]. Researchers have encouraged the incorporationof these constructivist approaches into engineering education [2], aiming to help studentsdevelop a wide range of abilities (such as complex-problem solving skills andinterdisciplinary thinking [3]). However, this increasing number of assignments stressesstudents [4], [5], negatively affecting their learning results [1], [6].To understand what students define as a demanding course, several researchers haveexplored the concepts of academic workload and course difficulty

One of the experiences from teaching thiscourse is that some topics can be covered survey style while others are simply too difficult. Thehardest topics to cover turn out to be those where the laboratory does not provide a good Page 5.408.7environment for re-enforcement or there is simply not enough time in either class or lab.Because the course already contained a lot of material, some modules had to be reduced in scopeto make room for areas which were not well covered.

The presentation format has evolved to an integratedlecture and laboratory experience serving in excess of 100 students each semester. Previouslythe large number of students in this course was accommodated by using multiple facultymembers instructing different course sections.
