(ASCE), American Society of MechanicalEngineers (ASME), and others. This framing of engineering codes of ethics begins to expandfrom microethical issues into larger macroethical issues such as sustainability and socialresponsibility. Social responsibility (SR) has been defined as “an ethical theory that an entity, beit an organization or individual, has an obligation to act to benefit society at large.” 2 In thecontext of engineering, Vanasupa et al.3 define SR as “the responsibility of engineers to carefullyevaluate the full range of broader impacts of their designs on the health, safety and welfare of thepublic and the environment.” Some have suggested that engineering ethics education should

Exploring Circuit Education for Early LearnersAbstract:Early exposure to circuits is critical to fostering an interest in engineering for young students, buttraditional circuit education is often not adapted to their cognitive and motor skill levels. Wedeveloped and evaluated two hands-on circuit education approaches, the Circuit Sticks and thePre-Prepared Copper Tape Circuits. Both methods were designed for first-grade students toimprove accessibility and engagement in early circuit learning. The Circuit Sticks provide astructured, guided experience, using color-coded polarity indicators and modular assembly tolower the barrier to entry. The Pre-Prepared Copper Tape Circuits, on the other hand, requireindependent

As departments look for ways to cut costs, hands-on instructionallaboratories, typically expensive to develop and maintain, are slowly being replaced withsimulated experiments [1-3]. While simulations are an important component for teachingstudents about general system behavior, they cannot always account for all the details that mustbe considered in designing and analyzing a physical system in an interdisciplinary, team-orientedenvironment. Furthermore, a laboratory curriculum based

This paper presents a computer-based system that has thepotential to improve and assess problem-solving skills of engineering students.Literature ReviewThe importance of conceptual knowledge as one of the prerequisites for expert-like problem-solving has been recognized in several studies [5-11]. Dufresne et al [9, 11] have proposed amodel for problem solving, identifying three key knowledges: i) concept knowledge, ii)operational/procedural knowledge, and iii) problem-state knowledge. According to this model,the conceptual knowledge of an expert is richly clustered and hierarchically arranged with

CAD tools often have complexinterfaces that take time to learn. An assignment using a CAD tool can quickly turn into a strugglewith tool usage rather than a reinforcement of lecture concepts. Licensing can be another prob-lem. Many students prefer to work on their own PCs instead of coming to a centralized lab, butCAD tool vendors may be reluctant to make an expensive tool available on all student machines.Finally, if every student has the same assignment, interactions among students can degeneratefrom discussing concepts to merely exchanging details of how to get the assignment working.When

mission of the laboratory is to develop and disseminate innovative instructionalmaterials that bring real-world issues into classrooms, using multimedia informationtechnologies and cross-disciplinary teams. We have developed seven multimedia case studiespartnering with industries to bring real-world engineering problems into classrooms. The casestudies illustrate how a problem in an industry is analyzed and solved. The format chosen by usenabled the students to experience the problem as it happened and develop and compare theirsolutions with what happened in the industry.These innovative educational materials received several awards including the Thomas C.
