, manufacturing, medicine, and exploration. Accordingly, it is essential tointroduce realistic robots to all engineering students, not only those majoring in robotic-centric programs so that theyare well prepared for the modern workplace. When students learn about robots with scaled-down models or withoutmodels, they risk not adequately appreciating the physical scale, abilities, and dangers associated with real-worldrobots. That said, industrial-scale robots are expensive to acquire and maintain and access to them may be restricted:requiring elevated privileges or requiring time-sharing between students. Therefore, it is vital to develop a cheaperand more accessible educational alternative that offers all the benefits of a real industrial robot. This

Their data, however, showedthat there was more disagreement than consensus among research participants with respect to theoverall effectiveness of the 35 potential exemplars and the extent to which participants would bepersonally interested in using them, making the researchers acknowledge that there will unlikelyever be a “‘one size fits all’ approach” to ethics education. While faculty in general agree thatengineering ethics should be incorporated into multiple courses in the curriculum, those whoteach traditional, more technical courses are less likely to think that ethics should be taught intheir own courses [29, p. 15], despite
