The empathypractice of perspective-taking has shown promise for developing ethical responsibility,promoting an awareness of others, and facilitating effective interpersonal interactions amongengineering design learners (Hess et al., 2017; Walther et al., 2017). While the majority ofresearch has focused on empathy in students, empathy and perspective-taking have beendescribed as an avenue for engineering faculty to “understand their academically diverse studentpopulation” (Hess et al., 2012, p.15), allowing them to more adequately assist students

Division members have developed a considerable amount of research around this approach [1].• Responsible Citizenship: Some work emerging from TELPhE has advocated for technological literacy as a component of responsible citizenship. A key theme in this group is the idea that given the pervasive nature of technology as part of everyday life, technological and engineering literacy should include an ability to understand the social, political, economic, and ethical implications of technological developments [1].• Engineering Literacy for

This claim is based on the first canon of the American Society of CivilEngineers (ASCE) code of ethics where it is stated that engineers should consider the safety andwelfare of the public as their first priority. The code of ethics hosts 7 fundamental canons that acivil engineer should always follow. The first of the seven cannons describe the concept ofsustainable development.Engineers shall hold paramount the safety, health, and welfare of the public and shall strive tocomply with the principles of sustainable development in the performance of their professionalduties.” [6]The recent infrastructure

For instance, the projects which include ethical, environmental, and politicalaspects of construction are divided into smaller pieces. The students’ work resulted in a deeperand more detailed investigation of the assigned topics than similar projects. In addition, thestudents will learn more from peers during the presentation by this method. Also, they practiceworking as a part of a larger team, which can be the entire class.An example is a project to understand the interdisciplinary nature of construction projects andencounter the students with logical

Abstract Laboratory safety poses inherent legal and ethical responsibilities that all engineeringeducation programs in the United States (U.S.) must address. However, developing safer habitsin the creation and testing of engineering design solutions starts long before students enter post-secondary engineering education programs. P-12 engineering education programs are a criticalpartner to develop greater safety awareness and safer habits among prospective engineers andour future workforce. This research utilized data from a national safety study involving 718 P-12engineering educators from 42 U.S. states, specifically focusing on the subsample of 117teachers from middle Atlantic (mid-Atlantic) states. Analyses found mid-Atlantic P

We propose to redesign theundergraduate curriculum to integrate security concerns and concepts during early phases ofembedded systems design. The goal of this new curriculum is to create new learning materials andteaching strategies, which will re-enforce life learning skills that incorporate security concepts inthe design of embedded systems. The curriculum will include a research component to assess thestudent’s learning skills. Through this curriculum, undergraduate students will learn the basics ofintegrated and collaborative research as well as research ethics. The key educational componentsthat need to be
