. ©American Society for Engineering Education, 2025Experience Report: Reflections on Teaching Ethics Unethically [evidence-based practice,DEI]AbstractEngineering ethics education is essential for future graduates, yet it is often seen as a secondary‘complementary’ study, it is pushed to be more ‘engineering-like’ through focusing onquantitative methods, it is reduced to ‘rules and codes’, and assessment of engineering ethicsremains a mysterious process that people are willing to ignore problems within. In this paper, Iprovide an autoethnographical case study of my experience in my first year of teachingengineering ethics, where I engaged as an observer with another instructor’s content.

ReflectionIn this work-in-progress paper, we suggest that the evaluation of undergraduate research experiences canbe adapted to serve as a useful tool for supporting student learning. Specifically, we argue thatundergraduate research can foster transformative learning, but one key element of this experientiallearning–reflection–can be difficult to integrate into the programs[1], [2]. Indeed, even for programs thatforeground experiential learning, such as service-learning and study abroad, it can be difficult to integratereflection effectively[3]. Yet the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Research Experience forUndergraduates (REU) programs do require a process that, surprisingly, could serve as a tool for doingthis work: program evaluation.

particularresearch topic. Research gaps may come up in the literature when conducting the review, whichmay lead to a dissertation or research project. Most of what is known about systematic literature reviews and scoping reviews originatefrom the psychological, health, and social sciences fields [2], [3], and while there are existingframeworks for these two types of literature reviews, they may not be directly transferable to theengineering education field. This realization made evident that this process is likely a generalexperience among novice researchers. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to discuss theapplications of both types of literature reviews with reflections from a novice researcher,discussing the importance of engaging in literature
