This project is to engage undergraduate faculty in a set of activities that will prepare them to teach courses or course modules on ethical and professional issues in computing. Twenty-five undergraduate faculty from a diversity of disciplines and types of institutions are participants. They are required to do pre-workshop assignments; attend a 5-day workshop during the summer, participate in an on-line forum, and attend a two day follow-up meeting in February. The activities are designed to address pedagogical issues as well as subject matter. The subject matter topics to be covered include proprietary rights in computer software, privacy, responsibility and liability, hacking, risk and reliability, democracy, access, and autonomy, and professional ethics for computer professionals. The project responds to the growing need for faculty trained in this area as the accreditation requirements in computer science and engineering recommend coverage of "social, ethical, and professional issues in computing."

这个项目是从事本科教师在一系列的活动，这将使他们准备教课程或课程模块的道德和专业问题的计算。 来自不同学科和机构类型的25名本科教师参加了会议。他们需要做研讨会前的作业;参加夏季为期5天的研讨会，参加在线论坛，并参加2月为期两天的后续会议。这些活动旨在解决教学问题和主题事项。涵盖的主题包括计算机软件的所有权、隐私、责任和赔偿责任、黑客攻击、风险和可靠性、民主、访问和自主权以及计算机专业人员的职业道德。该项目响应了对在这一领域接受培训的教师日益增长的需求，因为计算机科学和工程的认证要求建议涵盖“计算中的社会，道德和专业问题”。"
