Engineering Ethics

the criticalconsequences of a decision, when students did not see the situation relevant to their career orsituation, they tended to fall for fallacies and/ or to rationalize the situation. The finding from my research suggests that an interaction of individual’s characteristicsand characteristics of moral issues affect the decisions of individuals. This further supports theoverall argument of the ethical decision model provided by Trevino (1986). According toTrevino’s (1986) model, individual and situational variables interact with the cognitivecomponent to determine how an individual is likely to behave facing an ethical dilemma. Another finding is that although there is a lot of emphasis on ethical theories andframeworks in

We also analyzed covariates of ACT, GPA, age, and technical experienceand found that GPA and age were significantly associated with higher grades. Interestingly,technical experience had no impact on students’ grades (good or bad). A few interestingimplications can be drawn from our study, as follows:  Non-major students were able to perform to the same academic level as major students, when given a technically rigorous experience that was significantly removed from many of the non-major’s career goals.  Students who were given a more hands-on, technically rigorous project did better academically in the course.  Age was an

However,students also used prior knowledge from other courses to demonstrate and explain their devices.As students were able to measure physical parameters, they began to see utility in their labproject and could easily find additional applications for their mini-projects.

Our thoughts: ● Majors will learn to write larger programs in CS 2. ● Non-majors, if they need to program in their careers, are more likely to have to write programs similar to the MSPs, like writing a small add-on function for a statistical analysis tool, for google docs, for a database query, etc. If they need to write more substantial programs, they will probably take a CS 2 class (or more). ● With the above said, we note that we intentionally ran the experiment in a more “extreme” manner, to see what effect would occur.

In thespring of 2017, when the data for this paper was collected, the class enrollment was 13 students.The class met twice weekly using a regular classroom format, with an additional weekly 3-hourlab session, where students worked on a semester-long design project.As part of the course requirements, each student was individually required to research acrowdfunding project and give a brief (5-10 min) presentation to the class, during which theywere to provide some insight into the design process itself. Specifically, students were asked tofocus on the following aspects of their chosen project in their
