4.2 Practical and professional ethics bowl activity: follow-up in  (Page 4/5)

4. This is not a research project but an exercise in integrating ethics into real world cases. In Chapters 2and 3 of Engineering Ethics: Concepts and Cases, the authors present a thorough discussion of the case study analysis/problemsolving method discussed in class. You also have supporting handouts in your file folders from Magic Copy Center as well asmaterials I have presented directly in class. Engineering Ethics: Concepts and Cases also contains several sample case studies thatcan help guide you in constructing your own presentation. What I am looking for is a discussion of the case in terms of the ethicalapproaches and decision-making frameworks we have discussed this semester. You do not need to "wow" me with research into otherareas peripherally related to the case; you need to show me that you have practiced decision-making and made a serious effort tointegrate ethical considerations into the practice of engineering.

5. The usual criteria concerning formal presentations apply when competing in the Ethics Bowl. Dress professionally.

6. You may write your group, team-written project in either Spanish or English.

7. All competitions will take place in the regular classroom.
