These intersections, at least partially,can further contextualize the generally poor retention rates– especially for students with dis-abilities, LGBTQ+ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer) students, students of color–and add to the chorus of voices pointing at systemic issues in engineers’ education as primaryfactors in students leaving engineering, rather than personal failings [40], [41], [42]. Accord-ingly, one potential avenue to address these issues in engineering is by flipping the script,and putting the pedagogy and structure of engineering education back into dialogue with thepurported value of failure in engineering.VI.

Banning their use is notlikely to succeed but can be controlled using AI detectors similar to the way plagiarism detectorsare already in use. As a result, the focus of engineering education should be on finding ways toassess student progress that demonstrate to students and future employers that students haveacquired the skills they need to contribute positively to their professions and to society.Use of AI tools as a form of ‘Collaboration’ is an extension of the use of tools such ascalculators, search engines across the internet, and smartphones.

Using the ADDIE (Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement,Evaluate) model for curriculum development, we have redesigned the course with input from aQuality Assurance advisory
given the polarization and plurality of views and beliefs in our nation and world andthe increasingly higher stakes of engineering practice. To help students understand how they canact on their personal ethics, the course also incorporates the GVV material, originally developedfor application in business settings. The GVV modules in this course were adapted specificallyfor use in engineering education, in collaboration with the GVV founder and the Online EthicsCenter (OEC) director and are now available through the OEC for anyone to use.
