Engineering Ethics
Methodology This study was designed as a first phase to study the effectiveness of teaching engineeringethics at the University. Later areas of study will build on this study and may include alongitudinal study and expansion to other institutions.Design This study was a non-experimental between-subjects non-equivalent groups design. Thisstudy was designed to compare the moral judgment of engineering students who are justbeginning their studies at the University with those who are completing their studies. The studydesign was approved by the University’s Ethics in Research Committee (EIRC).Hypothesis The University’s teaching of engineering ethics increases students’ engineering moraljudgment as reflected in scores on the Engineering

0.783 for Section 002.This is likely due to the makeup of students in each section and the time difference betweenwhen the two sections met for class. The lower performing section was the earlier 8 AM classwhen more students were apt to miss class, show up late, and be less engaged during the classlectures. The importance of the difference between the two sections is reflected in the unevendistribution of homework assignments. The section that performed better was assessed twicewith paper homework while the section that performed worse was assessed twice withWeBWorK homework. This would indicate the difference between paper-based homework andWeBWorK-based homework may be larger than directly indicated by the score averages weobtained. If only

student biases and misconceptions areexposed and a broader perspective is gained of the world in which we live and work [2, 3, 4, 5]. Inrecent years there has been a significant increase in the number of engineering-specificinternational programs reflecting the increasing globalization of the engineering enterprise.As engineering educators one might ask if engineering students learn differently on study abroadprograms than do students in other majors? And, if so, what implication does this have indeveloping and conducting these programs? The field of international education has, for sometime, sought to find ways to adequately assess international programs [3]. There is a consensus inmuch of the literature that studying abroad can have a positive

In the first-year engineering course, ENG1101, approximately five 1.5 hour classsessions are spent on sketching topics, followed by an exam. The graphics topics covered in thiscourse include isometric and oblique sketching, orthographic projections of normal, inclined, andcurved surfaces, rotations, reflections, and planes of symmetry. Students scoring 60% or belowon the PSVT paper and LMS versions were excluded from this analysis because they wererequired to

the assigned programming projectswere slightly more substantial. Exam metrics reflected this change in emphasis as well. Studentswere more capable of generating global beam stiffness matrices by hand (87%), and slightly morefamiliar with shape functions (70%). However, nearly half of students could not answer a con-ceptual question regarding the difference between a finite element and continuous solution for anelastic bar.It should be noted that both class sizes were small (11 and 15), and that there were differences inexpectations in each group. In 2013, the students were nearer completion of the degree, with moreexperience from upper level courses with a significant programming component. Specifically,45% of the 2013 cohort had taken two or

scale ranges from 1-10 and thereforeeach scale value reflects a 10% change). The data are also not ratio data, since zero is not a possible rating(a student would only receive a zero if they did not present their work, in which case there would be nopeer evaluation). This restricts the types of analysis that can be applied to the data, and reduces thesensitivity of any conclusions (Trochim, 2006). Nonetheless, interesting conclusions regarding bias andpotential cronyism can be drawn when we organized the ratings into ranges and looked at the frequencyof ratings in each range, as discussed below.Given the small amount of data and that reliability has been studied extensively, we chose to investigateto what extent students used the entire range

Reflecting on this after the semester, itwas a mistake to attempt what might be called a partial flip. He agreed to take of EI because hewas given the opportunity to teach a well-developed flipped course. He also was building on hisexperience from the earlier course. The fundamental reason why he was interested is based onreading papers and forming a conviction that his time with the students is best served helpingthem get past difficulties by learning how they approach problems. Then he is able to help themdetermine where there are gaps in their knowledge and how to use the course resources to bridgethose gaps. A lecture isn’t

requirements.ConclusionIn conclusion, public educational institutions are responsible for educating students in a safe andeffective environment. Across the US, the number of female students engaging in PLTW doesnot reflect the population as a whole. Therefore, women will continue to be underrepresented inthese programs unless measures are taken. Offering all-female PLTW cohorts have proven theirsuccess to attract and retain more female students. Though the evidence is clear, all-femalePLTW cohorts are slow to be adopted. There is a fear that single-sex education in a mixedsetting gives preferential treatment and an unfair advantage to some students. However, withoutthese interventions, the representation of women in PLTW and engineering programs willincrease
