Abstract
This workshop, conducted by the lead editor of the forthcoming Routledge International Handbook of Engineering Ethics Education, focuses on exploring active learning teaching methods in engineering ethics education. Beginning with a whole-group discussion to define ethics in engineering education, facilitators will present an overview of trends and teaching methods outlined in the handbook. These methods include case studies, project-based learning (PB), value-sensitive design, service-learning, arts-based methods, and reflective and dialogical approaches. Participants will then engage in hands-on activities, selecting one ethics topic (e.g., environmental sustainability, social justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion) and one active learning pedagogy (case studies and dilemmas, PBL, or reflective approaches) and explore their integration intoone of their programs or modules. The workshop aims to familiarize participants with the handbook, promote its utility for educators, and provide a platform for understanding and applying concepts from its chapters. Participants will workcollaboratively to identify ethical issues and apply chosen methods to engineering modules, fostering critical discussion, and planning for ethical integration. By the end of the workshop, participants will be able to define ethics in engineering education, recognize various ethical issues, identify active learning methods for teaching ethics, describe plans for integrating ethics into modules, evaluate proposed activities, and understand the content of the forthcoming handbook.This workshop aligns with conference themes on active learning, innovative experiences in engineering education, and ethics and sustainability.
