项目摘要

There is now a substantial (though still inadequate) body of cases that can be used in the teaching of engineering ethics. Virtually none of the cases, however, have a numerical component. This project includes a workshop to develop numerical problems to accompany existing cases and newly developed cases in engineering ethics. The development of numerical problems promotes the introduction of issues in engineering professionalism and ethics into required undergraduate engineering courses in several ways: * It provides an added inducement to engineering instructors, who are always looking for new problems, to use the cases. * It appeals to students, because it provides a human and social dimension to their technical work. * It mitigates the objection of instructors that there is insufficient time to introduce sections on professionalism and ethics, since there is a directly relevant numerical component in the cases themselves. * It helps to integrate ethics components into technical courses, since the ethics components are more clearly linked to the technical work. * It could provide a model that is more compelling than free-standing ethics cases for introducing ethics sections into engineering textbooks. A workshop develops such numerical problems; and their classroom use is evaluated a year later.

现在有大量（尽管仍然不够）的案例可以用于工程伦理学的教学。然而，几乎没有一个案例具有数字成分。该项目包括一个研讨会，旨在开发数字问题，以配合工程伦理中的现有案例和新开发的案例。数值问题的发展以多种方式促进了将工程专业精神和道德问题引入到必修的本科工程课程中： *它为总是寻找新问题的工程教师提供了使用案例的额外诱因。 * 它对学生很有吸引力，因为它为他们的技术工作提供了人文和社会维度。 * 它减轻了教师的反对意见，即没有足够的时间介绍专业精神和道德部分，因为案例本身有直接相关的数字部分。 * 它有助于将道德成分整合到技术课程中，因为道德成分与技术工作的联系更加清晰。 * 它可以提供一个比独立的道德案例更引人注目的模型，用于将道德部分引入工程教科书。研讨会提出了此类数值问题；一年后对他们的课堂使用情况进行评估。
