Both themore data oriented initial coding as well as the conceptualizing focused coding happened inparallel for much of the overall coding process. Focused coding was the first conceptual stepin the data analysis where significant or frequent first order codes are used to group andexplain larger sets of data. All of the codes remaining after the initial and focused coding,were then further thematically analyzed in a format inspired by Gioia et al.’s data structure[38].

We operationalized “students seeing ethics in a course” by looking at whether an electiveor required course mentioned in a program’s graduation requirements had the word ethics (or avariant) in either the course title or course description. We acknowledge two potential flaws interms of false positives and false negatives - just because a course has ethics somewhere in itsdescription or title does not necessarily send a strong signal about how that was translated intothe classroom (i.e., an instance of a false positive in the data). Likewise, a course description ortitle not having ethics in the title does not necessarily translate to students not learning aboutsome aspect(s

In fact, Schön went as far to argue that there is no such thingas problem solving in the engineering profession as “no engineer has ever been given a problemto solve.” Schön’s contention is the value of engineers’ work is not found in their problemsolving abilities. Rather, the essential facet of engineers’ work is found in their “problemsetting.” Engineers make sense of a given messy world from which many factors need to beconsidered, organized, and
