Given shrinking credit hours for engineering degrees and an increasingnumber of topics, it can be challenging to find space in the curriculum for standalone ethicscourses [9]. These courses can be offered outside of the engineering department as part of thegeneral education or liberal arts requirement, but this approach can be met with a lack of studentengagement if the topics appear disconnected from their engineering preparation [10].Given these considerations, micro-insertions of ESI have been promoted as an effective approach[11].

There are various reasons for this trend. One is that in this way more childrenhave access to the curriculum that integrates computer science principles, not just thoseundergraduate students in specific STEM majors. Other industries need different levels ofcomputer science and cybersecurity education. There are various programs across the nation thatare focusing on introducing these topics as early as elementary school through various outreachprograms or even in the

, it is likely that the majority of K-12 STEMeducators have experienced minimal opportunities to engage in scientific investigations that wouldsupport their ability to deliver STEM curriculum effectively (Wilson, et al). In response to these warnings, initiatives to improve the American education system (especiallyin STEM fields) have arisen. These initiatives have taken many forms, but perhaps most-notably areimprovements in curriculum and professional development programs for educators. These, of course,are not mutually exclusive, as advancement of curriculum calls for increased educator understand-ing of content material. The National Science Education Standards (1996) describes an effectivesecondary-level science teacher as one that is
