For example, one participant stated: “It has opened my mind upto a Masters, not in literacy. It’s possible that I would look for something in science education ormaybe even a particular science.” Yet another said: “There is a possibility of co-writing a grant. Iwould like to do more research at the community college.”Bibliography1. Kazerounian, K. & Foley S. (2007). Barriers to creativity in

, ethics is the study of “what it means to do theright thing”. A related debate is how to view ethical rules – as fundamental and universal, likethe laws of science or as rules that provide a framework for interacting with other people in aproductive way.Moreover, from a global perspective, ethical rules differ across different cultures. In somecountries it is considered a common business practice to offer bribes or kickbacks, whereas in theU.S. this practice is illegal and unethical. Is one culture’s “bribe” just another culture’s“lobbying”? The “bribe” is considered unlawful, whereas the lobbyist is working in a legallyrecognized manner as long as s/he does not transfer money to gain access to power.

In this context a humble but importantrole of western designers may be to structure the project so that such experimental methodscould be unleashed. Such method could render the existing binaries (West and non-West, pastand present, field and home) obsolete and generate instead a new forum based on commonpolitical aspirations. Fieldwork that is capable of creating such a forum could further the roles ofarchitectural and engineering education.1 Formerly Kigali Institute of Science and Technology until 3013.2 See for instance Ewing, S. et al, eds.
