Informed by research in engineering ethics education that much of the ethics instructionwould run the risk of being only superficially effective if it does not address three categories oflearning objectives: emotional engagement (want to make ethical decisions), intellectualengagement (know how to make ethical decisions), and particular knowledge (be aware of thecurrently accepted guidelines for ethical practice) [12], [13], we curated a suite of ethicsactivities that expose students to various aspects of AI
