• Engineering work/practice considerations (7 items): respondents rated the importance of seven considerations relevant to engineering based on ABET criteria (e.g., technical, environmental, social, economic, health/safety, manufacturability, and ethical) [1].• Macro-ethics (8 items): Comprised of items about the obligations, duties, and social responsibilities of engineers, including in relation to the technologies they create.• Moral Attentiveness (7 items): A scale intended to measure the extent to which students perceive and reflect on moral issues in their day-to-day experiences [32]. 
• Moral Disengagement (24 items): A scale that measures students’ tendency to morally

,unvalidated version of the MFQ, such that the results do not support their claims.[69] Althoughthe authors of this paper find those responses convincing, as Owen Flanagan has recently andrightly noted, not all characteristics of MFT proposed by its creators/advocates logically entaileach other, such that trouble for one or some does not necessarily entail trouble for all.[70]The chief interest in MFT for the present study is as a pluralist, social intuitionist theory of morality– in other words, that, first, morality is about many things rather than only one; second, the contentsof moral judgments are socially oriented and culturally variable; third, moral judgments are closerto/result from feelings than rational reflection. As mentioned above, this

of the ecosystem: howchanges in the natural world specifically affect our species [61]. More recent theorists, however,are exploring the concept of “deep ecology,” that is, “nature as a whole has moral value” [62, p.97], irrespective of interplay with the human population. Viewing the natural world as having anintrinsic worth is, indeed, one of the major challenges facing environmental philosophers [63].Ocean gyres, particularly the GPGP, are a topic ripe for ethical reflection in engineering classesfor a number of reasons. First, it involves public safety, which engineers in all fields pledge touphold as professionals in their respective areas. Second, it involves establishing and maintaininga sustainable environment, which engineering

, “students are forced to reflect . . . on the environment of decision making.”4 Doing soallows students to exercise critical thinking and ethical decision-making abilities. Because smallcases are so limited, instructors can spend more time focusing on these skill sets, as well asethical problem identification and moral deliberation.Finally, a consideration of our students’ career paths indicates that small cases may be morerelevant. Engineers, of course, have been involved in high-profile cases, but chances are that our Page 22.710.2students will probably face ethical challenges of the more mundane, garden variety.
