Ethically, people arelooking for tough and reliable gadgets which compare with older generation gadgets andwhich are smart enough to stay that way. Ideas that move the technological market arefull of iffy claims vs. iron–clad Guarantees. The ethical meanings of precise, simple, lowcost, efficient, maximize and replace are shady.

The course was revamped in Spring 2005 to betteremphasize engineering aspects of ethics, economics, sustainability, and sociopoliticalissues.As part of teaching ethics, students have traditionally been assigned an individuallywritten ethics paper. Since students were allowed to select their own cases, it was notuncommon for some students to select the same case. There was also limited discussionbetween students regarding the cases they chose, or how they would judge the behaviorsof engineers in these cases.Starting with the Spring 2005 Semester, ethics instruction increased

The objective of the course was to demonstrate that exposure to and involvement inan ethics course specifically designed for engineers can mature the moral reasoning skills ofthose students who participate. The course was organized around three sections. Section I of thecourse grounded the students in ethical theory. The remaining part of the course utilized faculty-led (Section II) and student-led case studies (Section III) to continue to mature their moralreasoning skills in an engineering context.The progress of moral reasoning skills was measured using the Defining Issues Test (DIT2).

technical learning [1][2], however in most cases where fiction is used, it supports professional learning in areas likeethics. In this paper, the authors go beyond the presentation of a case study where literature wasused to frame and guide discussions around ethics in an engineering course by coding studentartifacts for values. Specifically, the student engineers participating in a seminar course wererequired to read and reflect in writing on Prey by Michael Crichton [3]. To set the stage for thiscase, some of the moral philosophy arguments around the use of fiction are discussedculminating in the conclusion that fiction is an appropriate tool in the teaching of ethics. Then,we will examine how literature has been broadly used in technical courses
