In a survey conducted among American uppersecondary students, although most of the students claimed to be aware of the ethical course ofaction in various situations, most of them were not able to choose a correct ethical alternative evenwhen posed with situations that were easy to comprehend [2]. A very high proportion of highschool and undergraduate students were found to be engaging in academic dishonesty consideringdifferent motives and possible outcomes. Even other kinds of unethical behavior were found to bepresent among school students, which demanded establishment and education of a common set ofsocially acceptable standards on morality among students [3,4]. Past research also hints at studentsat the tertiary level lacking basic

Both these courses provide students withtheoretical knowledge and hands on experience. The ABET outcomes for ME-335/L class are asfollows:1. an ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science and engineering, outcome (a),2. an ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data, outcome (b),3. an ability to communicate effectively (3g1 orally, 3g2 written), outcome (g), and4. an ability to use the techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering

Active learning comprises abroad range of pedagogical practices, from initiating student-to-student discussions, integratingreal-world applications in class, facilitating group activities, using formative feedback, askingstudents to lead activities, and many other potential learning activities. The important part ofactive learning is engaging people directly in the learning process so they actively participate intheir knowledge acquisition. There is a broad body of knowledge emphasizing the efficacy ofactive learning over traditional, instructor-centered practices [37], [38], [39]. Active learning canincrease student engagement in the learning process. Within STEM disciplines

By capitalizing onthe design process teachers can enhance student engagement, motivation, application ofknowledge, and self assessment; elements essential for deep learning in STEM. Yet, many K-12educators are not familiar with the structure, elements, and process of engineering design. Theirunfamiliarity indicates a need to address K-12 teacher knowledge of engineering design toprepare them to use the process for instruction. We answered this call by making engineeringdesign a theme and focus of a residential four-day summer institute for K-12 teachers.

processes that engineering is capable of bringing to the table. Thisis one of the most important initial messages that is a part of teaching engineering education forthe K-12 classroom.As an example, the use of a kit that allows students to assemble a pre-designed heart rate monitormay not impact critical thinking [14]. An activity that uses the monitor in the course of takingmeasurements is more of a pure science or mathematics activity than engineering. In fact, anypurely procedural activity runs the risk of losing its connection to engineering if it lacks problemsolving or design. This does not mean that the activity is somehow lesser, but it does mean that itdoesn’t meet learning objectives for engineering.This type of message is an example of
