studentscome from a wide range of backgrounds and my experience of over 30 years of teachingundergraduates is that most undergraduates do not have a strong command of unitconversions. This is easy to determine by giving your class a pop quiz. Ask them todetermine the potential energy of 10 lbm 100 ft above the ground in Btu using PE=mgh if1 Btu=550 ft lbf and g=32.2 ft s-2. My experience is that a significant number ofundergraduates (not just first-year students) are not proficient at applying gc for unitconversions. Because units are such an integral part of engineering calculations, it justmakes sense to invest a little time to ensure that all freshmen know how to systematicallyapply unit conversions including the use of gc.COMMUNICATIONS It

An activity is a set of variousactions (such as ideating, negotiating, planning, agreeing, disagreeing) carried out by a group, asocial unit such as a team, motivated by a socially constructed goal. For our use, the activitiesstudied in this paper are team meetings in which a team uses a whiteboard to mediate a decisionor series of decisions.Togethering, as described by Radford and Roth, “has the purpose of realizing a collectivelymotivated object”9.

The minimum project requirements were: (1) including bothtesting and QA components, although it was up to each team to decide on the proportion of bothcomponents, (2) developing and executing a test plan, even if testing was a small part of theproject, and (3) performing a manual software inspection for selected modules or the whole SUT.

ideasborrowed from environmental ethics seem particularly relevant. One such methodology, firstdeveloped by Johnson, termed a morally deep world view, cautions that both the individual andthe system(s) in which that individual is embedded, matter from an ethical point of view.3 Asecond approach uses the development first offered by Thomas Berry4 and further refined bySwimme 5 and Swimme and Tucker.6 This paradigm takes us from an individual or localperspective on ethical reasoning to an Earth and Universe perspective which is alive, integratedand dependent. Berry described three universal principles that ought to govern our response toethical dilemmas. Those principles include differentiation, subjectivity and communion orcommunity. Here
