Liberativeassessment should fit into a larger picture related to the entire curriculum, in which courses arelinked to who students are as individual learners, and what motivates them to pursue engineering.In the first year, our institution’s introductory engineering design course engages studentidentities and introduces the ethics and social relevance of engineering. It is critical at this pointto hear students’ voices to learn what they bring into the program and how they think aboutengineering. Their questions can become a motivating force for the entire

If engineers do not followthese guidelines or topics and the result is a failure that causes loss of property and/or life, the legalsystem is always ready to hold engineers accountable. In addition to the external accountability thatexists for engineers, there is also an internal, personal accountability that exists. Internalizing theprofessional code of ethics is a start. Many people have other systems by which they live as well.Religion plays a big part in this role, whether it be Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Confucianism,Christianity, Taoism

One of the main goals of enforcing a P.E. license is to ensureengineering graduates follow ethical responsibility to protect public health, safety, and welfare.Currently, every state regulates the practice of engineering to ensure public safety by grantingonly Professional Engineers (PEs) the authority to sign and seal engineering plans and offer theirservices to the public [10].Historical data to regulate engineering practices in the United States dates back to the early1900s when the state of Wyoming established licensing requirements in 1907 [10].

Such an approach has the added benefit of enhancing student engagementand motivation.

In general terms, studentsare more likely to cheat on a homework assignment than on an exam. Passow et al. have alsosuggested that students who cheat on homework in their first years of college withoutconsequence may develop skills to allow them to continue to cheat, and on higher-riskassessments such as tests, as they progress through school.Certainly the issue of academic misconduct extends beyond a single course, but due to itsprevalence on homework, impact on learning, and ethical implications it deserves attention inoverall course design.
