intent is to educate and guide students through ethical issues they are likelyto encounter in real world engineering situations.The way students are exposed to engineering ethics varies from institution to institution. AtEastern Washington University (EWU), two main approaches are used. One uses the NationalSociety of Professional Engineers' (NSPE) Ethics Exam2 as an assessment tool (Durfee &Loendorf3, 2008). While the other extensively utilizes case studies and is the focus of this paper.By combining these two modes of instruction, the students receive a varied and diverse exposureto engineering ethics.BackgroundA variety of definitions for case study research exist but generally they fall into two basicversions.

Starting from Fall 1998, the program requires every freshmanengineering student to own a laptop. Over the next 4 years, all the undergraduate courses will betaught with the help of a laptop computer. A radio-frequency (RF) wireless network connectionis one of the services provided by the school of engineering in conjunction with the laptopprogram. This allows the students and faculty to be connected to the network, both the Internetand OU’s local area network.
