Description : Unit 7 of the PLTW Principles of Engineering (POE) curriculum has a brief introduction to engineering ethics. In this course we wish to expand the current ethics material and extend its presentation over all seven units of the POE curriculum. This will require the POE instructor to engage in an overview of contemporary ethics in engineering issues followed by research and development in curriculum for ethics awareness in science and engineering education. Supplemental curriculum covering engineering ethics following the APPB learning model and meeting ABET 2000 requirements is to be developed. Strategies for assessment of the supplemental material are to be developed.
