The pre-test consisted of eight multiple-choice questions related to a printeddiscussion about three ethical viewpoints regarding spending one‟s earnings by giving to charity.It required students to compare and contrast both actual and implied statements to determine thebest of four possible answers for each question. Since the writing instructor monitored the test-taking, students could ask questions about words and phrases they did not understand. Page 25.815.13Consequently, this scenario

Most current aerospaceengineering curricula have little room in which the special needs of the missile community canbe met.

. While studies vary in how theydefine “broader context,” they consistently emphasize that engineers should look beyondtechnical functionality to consider political, environmental, and cultural contexts that couldimpact or be impacted by a project. For example, Mazzurco and Daniel [23] analyzed 26engineering students and 16 engineering practitioners’ responses to a design task. They foundthat students and practitioners were both able to provide high-quality considerations related totechnology, but students struggled with considerations related to stakeholders and local norms,laws and ethics, and other socio-material contexts. A “culture of disengagement” in engineeringeducation may also lead students to view broader context as irrelevant to

Engineering at Georgia Tech, focuses on advancing written, visual, and verbal communication skills. Her research centers on affect theory and its application to technical communication, specifically information design. Jill studies how to enhance the effectiveness of pedagogical documents by incorporating principles from affect theory. Through her work, she aims to empower students, fostering an environment where they actively shape their communication interactions, including teamwork and ethical discussions. By integrating these principles, she goes beyond traditional methods, ensuring that students not only learn but also take an active role in shaping their communication experiences.Dr. Christie Stewart, Georgia

curriculum should include the use of building simulation and the idea of energyand comfort performance as an important driver for the design process. This will support studentdesign decisions based upon the affect on a building’s lighting, heating, cooling performance,and the comfort of future occupants. In this setting, for example, the glazing of a façadebecomes less about referential stylistic applications and more about whether the window patternprovides the defined daylight illumination levels while avoiding thermal penalties. Aestheticsmust play a central role in creating vitality between people and the built environment, but in theproposed curriculum it will be founded upon an ethic that design must also be grounded inphysics and energy

The course included a good blend of traditional andmodern experiments and lecture topics on lab safety, writing skills, professionalism and ethics,and a token discussion of statistics and experimental design. When a one-credit junior seminarcourse, “Chemical Engineering as a Profession,” was introduced in our curriculum, studentslearned about many of the professional topics

For example, Barrington and Duffy found that girls are more likely to pursuecareers in engineering and science if engineering is presented in a more socially relevant contextsuch as engineering service-learning projects3.Engineers indeed perform an incredibly wide variety of functions applying science andmathematics to solve problems of interest to society. Therefore, in addition to science andmathematics skills, engineers must have effective communication skills, be highly team-oriented,have high ethical principles, be familiar with and understand major societal problems,demonstrate leadership qualities and understand the impact of their work on society.

Engineers are inventors and designers; they apply science and mathematics; anduse their imagination and creativity to make ideas a reality. They create technical solutions tomeet societal needs. This forms the core of engineering activities2,3. Yet, there is a decline inhigh school students’ interest in careers in science and engineering resulting in a decline inengineering enrollment, both undergraduate and graduate. Engineering doctorates have declinedin recent years and are still below the levels of the 1980s3.Adolescents seldom lack curiosity, but as they go into the teenage years their enthusiasm forlearning Science, Technology, Engineering, and

Accordingly, the National Collaborative Task Force believes that themodern paradigm and process for needs-driven engineering can be reflected as shown below: 9 Engineering → Technology
