States Coast Guard Academy (CGA), located in New London, Connecticut, is thesmallest of the United States military academies with approximately 1100 cadets. The mission ofthe CGA is to educate, train and develop leaders of character who are ethically, intellectually,and professionally prepared to serve their country and humanity [1]. CGA offers Bachelor ofScience degrees in nine majors, including civil engineering, and all cadets are required tograduate in four years. The civil and environmental engineering curriculum is broad and providesa solid background in the structures, environmental, geotechnical, and construction sub-fields ofcivil engineering. Graduates pursue several different career paths and many of them serve in theUnited States

Likewise, the seniors in Capstone Design can learn from the first-yearstudents who identify the need to understand and empathize with end users and target beneficiaries,which also includes maintaining an ethical compass. This outward-facing perspective is found muchlower on the seniors’ list. Similarly, the

, despite the potential, civilengineering as a profession, and more importantly as a field of engineering education, still hasmuch room for improvement in training students on the long-term social implications of civilengineering works, particularly how engineering can shape distributional outcomes and socialjustice under climate change, natural disasters and aging infrastructure [2].Current civil engineering curricula at most universities in the U.S. are centered on science andengineering problem solving and include exposure to topics such as engineering economics andengineering ethics. This is critical for building the core competencies needed for the civilengineering profession. However, there are also concerns that this core competency is

Education Research (EER)AbstractThis paper reports on a project funded through the Engineering Education and Centers (EEC)Division of the National Science Foundation. The project is aimed towards buildingunderstanding in the engineering education research (EER) community about the potential valueof secondary data analysis (SDA) as well as developing guidelines for using this researchapproach. Changing the paradigm of single-use data collection will require actionable, provenpractices for effective, ethical data sharing, coupled with sufficient incentives to both share anduse existing data. To that end, this project drew together a team of experts and emergingresearchers to develop a shared understanding of SDA, and to conduct two intentional

While social loafing is an outcomefocused phenomenon, the sucker effect focuses on the above mechanism. Hence, it is measuredusing an instrumental factor, an ethical factor and an equity factor. These factors wereconstructed based on the Australian Work Ethic Scale [23] and the Protestant Work Ethic Scale[24].Social Compensation - Social compensation can be described as the tendency of individuals,especially those with low interpersonal trust, to work harder in a team environment in order tocompensate for the lower performing teammates [25].

Below are presented some of the findings: • Males generally cheat more, though the difference was reported as diminishing over time • Lower G.P.A. students cheat more • Business major students cheat more than others • Personal moral/ethical guidelines affect cheating propensity and feelings about cheating • More surveillance corresponded with less cheating • Observing others cheating, knowing friends who cheat, and sitting next to

This can be done by giving some examples in class so that students can understand how AI tools can be wisely used in engineering education. 2. Do not have AI take over the thinking process. Make sure that students understand that when they are using an AI tool, they should double check its accuracy. AI tools may be beneficial in many ways and may give accurate information, however, information given still needs to be double checked. 3. Promote awareness of ethical considerations.
