Ethics and Values Studies supports research on the social values and mutual obligations and responsibilities that arise in the interactions of science, technology and society. This project takes an interdisciplinary approach to addressing ethical concerns raised by applications of computer technology in education. Increasingly, various forms of computer technology are being applied in education in ways that bear on student-teacher interaction and the learning process, on educational values toward human interaction and individualization. In this project, a philosopher, psychologist, and human development specialist, working with an educational computing consultant, will carry out an empirical inquiry into the ways in which computer-assisted instruction (CAI) affects student behavior and attitudes in a particular context. The context is the use of CAI programs as a standard part of undergraduate courses in Deductive Logic. Findings will help to shape future development of the CAI programs and of computer applications in education that are simultaneously guided by ethical perspectives on their social and psychological consequences. Results are expected to be of interest to a wide audience, including philosophers, psychologists, and professional educators. Findings will be written up for publication in several journals and presented at national meetings. This project focuses on an important issue in ethics and undergraduate science education. The investigators are highly qualified; the institutional sponsor is appropriate; the research promises to give us some unique information about impacts of computer technology in at least one area of the curriculum, as well as development and testing of a variety of data collection methods which can then be applied to other curriculum areas. Results are likely to be of wide interest and appropriately disseminated. The project is strongly recommended for an award.

伦理和价值观研究支持对科学、技术和社会相互作用中产生的社会价值以及相互义务和责任的研究。这个项目采用跨学科的方法来解决计算机技术在教育中的应用所引起的伦理问题。各种形式的计算机技术正越来越多地应用于教育，其方式与师生互动和学习过程有关，与教育价值有关，与人与人之间的互动和个性化有关。在这个项目中，一位哲学家、心理学家和人类发展专家将与一位教育计算顾问合作，对计算机辅助教学(CAI)在特定背景下影响学生行为和态度的方式进行实证调查。背景是使用计算机辅助教学程序作为演绎逻辑本科课程的标准部分。这些发现将有助于塑造计算机辅助教学程序和计算机在教育中的应用的未来发展，同时以伦理观点指导其社会和心理后果。预计结果将引起广泛受众的兴趣，包括哲学家、心理学家和专业教育工作者。研究结果将被撰写在几个期刊上发表，并在国家会议上公布。这个项目聚焦于伦理学和本科生科学教育中的一个重要问题。研究人员具有很高的资质；机构赞助商是合适的；这项研究承诺为我们提供一些关于计算机技术在至少一个课程领域的影响的独特信息，以及各种数据收集方法的开发和测试，这些方法随后可以应用于其他课程领域。结果可能会引起广泛关注并适当传播。该项目被强烈推荐获奖。
