To achieve this,we need to teach computer and information ethics to students from undergraduate programs,along with theories and technologies in computer sciences. Recent research shows us that ethicseducation improves students’ ethical awareness and sensitivity as well as moral reasoning [3]–[4]. While many undergraduate computer science programs include ethics in their curriculum,the teaching methods, topics, target students, credit hours, and instructor expertise vary [5]–[8].There is an urgent

Algebraic Distances for the Centroid.The moment of inertia of an area is a geometric property that is calculated about an axis. It is ageometric property that is calculated about an axis and for the x and y-axes shown in figure 7 itis defined as the integrals. These integrals have no physical meaning, but become very usefulwhen combined with the parallel axis theorem for an area. Note: Although similar information,the moment of inertia of an area should not be confused with the moment of inertia of a mass,which is a dynamical property of matter.10Figure 7. Area

Human-Centered Design via Student ReflectionsIntroductionWith a worldwide pandemic threatening the health of all, now is the time to ensure that we, thecommunity of engineering educators, are actively providing the next generation of engineerswith the skills and motivations necessary to address grand societal challenges in meaningfulways. One "grand challenge" for the engineering education community that we put forth ispreparing engineering undergraduate students to meaningfully integrate stakeholders into theirdesign-based thinking, a domain of work that is preceded by many others [1-3] and which isostensibly an essential aspect of the design outcome of ABET program accreditation [4].To this end, in this study

StudyAbstractIt has been the consensus in the engineering community that sustainability and sustainable designneed to be a part of an engineer’s education for last two decades. Multiple approaches have beeninvestigated in terms of effectively integrating relevant contents and improving students’understanding. Examples include: offering technical electives (such as renewable energy,environmental impacts, etc.), establishing new concentrations focusing on sustainability issues,and integrating sustainable design throughout the curricula. However, effectively comprehendingsustainable design requires understanding multiple issues from a technical, social,environmental, and economic perspective. Moreover, existing studies show that the students’background

With the increased integration of projects into courses, however, morefaculty combine opportunities for in-class work with expectations that students will also arrangeout-of-class meetings (Figure 6). The sharp decrease in “lab-only” work time, particularly giventhe increase in-lab plus out-of-class time, could indicate an expansion of the complexity ofdesign projects. That is, the scope of current design projects now exceeds the available classtime. If true, this expanded scope may have significant implications for both teachers andstudents in terms of successfully managing larger projects
