. As educators increasingly work to incorporatesustainability into curricula, all levels of interventions can support one another. In addition toacting as miniature interventions, frameworks such as PESTEL can also be used as a curriculumreview tool to reveal students’ current ability to conceptualize connections and identify areasthat require additional coverage or discussion to support effective prioritization in limited classtime. However, as the current study is based on a single course, more research is required toexplore effective ways to use such tools as a diagnostic element within a curriculum and teachingand learning context.At the same time, the current results also showcase how merely introducing the PESTELframework led to student

Engineering students reportedly feel that they do not receive satisfactory ethicsinstruction through their curriculum (Culver et al., 2013). Cech (2014) reports a “culture ofdisengagement” in engineering education that may explain this shared, narrow explicitunderstanding. The findings in this study suggest that engineering ethics education needs to placemore emphasis on the extended context including social, cultural, and global implications.Unlike the explicit understanding that was largely shared across the SDP teams, there weresubstantive differences in the implicit understanding exhibited between the SRC team and theHelmet team.
