Inaddition, many of the instructors in the first-year design course noted regular discussions withstudents about tradeoffs and ethical dilemmas embedded in their project. Thus, the goal of theScaffolding Ethics project was to more systematically incorporate ethical considerations into thefirst-year engineering design course.During the academic year 2019-2020, we established a research and design team within DukeUniversity’s Bass Connection program.

At least I hope so.”Two students in Dynamics (FA19) wrote: “I liked the computing projects because they are an excellent way of applying MATLAB coding and technical writing to the concepts taught it class.

A control groupwould serve as a measure of no treatment nor exposure to new practices – just business as usual.Our assumption is that a pre-PT problem solving discussion assessment serves the same purposeas a post-assessment of a control group. That is, the students in the program are sophomore, junior,and senior undergraduates, who already bring to the study an established approach to ill-structuredproblems that has been developed over their academic careers thus far. We therefore treat the pre-PT problem solving discussion data as the control group baseline for

challenge for sociotechnical engineering instruction is the evaluation of itseffects. Some of the difficulty results from the breadth of educators’ goals. Most of these effortsdo not define specific desired outcomes beyond increasing students’ ability to understand “thetechnical” and “the social” as deeply connected, and to appreciate that sociotechnical thinking isan important part of engineering work. That is, sociotechnical engineering programs andinterventions rarely prescribe desired career paths or other, more easily quantifiable goals fortheir students.

Both instructors feel this may be attributed to the ability of theonline students to work more effectively in teams than the face to face students.Both instructors believe that the interviews are a vital component to the course and allow thestudents to not only understand what a practicing engineer does in his or her career, but theinterviews add relevancy to the course material.
