With this is mind our course in Computer Ethics has been significantly changed to increase collaboration and enhance peer learning. A large portion of this change was made possible by using the Web-Based Course Management System, Blackboard Course Info and designating the course \"speaking intensive\". Educators everywhere are learning to use the Internet as a powerful tool in the assistance of teaching and learning. The Internet extends the effectiveness of the classroom experience and turns it into an exciting and interactive education environment. One of the fastest growing areas in the technology-mediated educational arena is the use of the Internet by colleges and universities to supplement face-to-face courses with online components. This paper discusses how a Computer Ethics Course used Course Info to strengthen cooperation and education and evaluates the result of the course participants.","PeriodicalId":394055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121694195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contemporary epistemology has altered our conception of language, bringing about recognition of a moral imperative-that communication in technical and professional settings constitutes more than an instrumental act, that it carries with it an obligation to recognize and respond to ethical controversy. This paper examines how we shall become more morally engaged in communication instruction. Analysis reveals three barriers inherent to our academic identities that impinge upon our potential to become morally engaged as faculty. Furthermore, we can develop technical curricula to prepare out graduates to create and fill a wider spectrum of professional roles. While not unrealistically downplaying the importance of traditional technical skills, such a curricula should create technically competent communicators to act as \"agents of improvement\" who decrease the \"insulation of expertise\" from the public \"lifeworld\".","PeriodicalId":394055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125502483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a matter of justice that technological interventions into circumstances of unavoidable suffering should preserve and facilitate a better understanding of meaning in suffering or alleviate suffering even through hastened death. A longer life is not necessarily a better life. Because of the advancements in medical technology, countless individuals may now be considered chronically ill. Yet, situations of unavoidable suffering may allow for other options such as euthanasia or physician assisted suicide. Technological interventions should be re-evaluated to value an individual assessment of being, not the elongation of life. Such does not prohibit technological interventions, but promotes individual autonomy.

Conceiving engineering as a liberal art indicates that engineering knowledge is required not only for a specialized career path but also increasingly important for active participation in citizenship. This idea challenges universities to rethink fundamental notions of both the liberal arts and engineering. Experimentation with new curricula in these educational areas should be a priority of universities, especially engineering institutions. We explore evidence from Georgia Tech and other universities that differences between engineering and the liberal arts are drawn too sharply, that design with a large number of variables and incommensurable objectives requires new critical vocabularies for production, and that the idea of engineering as a liberal art offers an opportunity to develop needed curricular flexibility.","PeriodicalId":394055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127675620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We then consider controversies surrounding the implementation of certain \"knowledge units\" on social and ethical issues in the Computer Science Curriculum, as recently proposed by the IEEE-CS/ACM Task force on Computing curricula. Finally, an interdisciplinary model is suggested that would enable instructors to deliver computer ethics courses in a way that integrates certain methodological insights from the disciplines of philosophy and computer science, as well as from the relevant social sciences.","PeriodicalId":394055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128661250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The individual focal engineer is presented as moving into the intersubjective conversation of the lifeworld from out of her/his authentic subjectivity. The engineering enterprise is considered as a contextual phenomenon, including three contextual layers: lifeworld containing the realm of systems, systems containing the realm of technological systems, and technological systems containing the realm of engineering. With increasing technical development, the lifeworld is more and more colonized by systems, especially the technological subsystem. These systems have a broad influence on the lifeworld, as criteria of these subsystems, e.g. efficiency and productivity, seem to dominate everyday life. The colonization process is largely done without rational oversight and seems to indicate a technological determinism. Problems arise from this process. As technological values tend to dictate more and more the shape of the lifeworld, human freedom will be more and more limited. The danger of a dehumanized lifeworld appears. Engineers are largely involved in the process, as technological design is a basic goal of the discipline. The main question is, how should technological design be done in order to be appropriate to the boundary condition of maintaining freedoms in an authentically humanized lifeworld? This is the place of focal engineering.","PeriodicalId":394055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121621477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Pre-Visit was held in May 1999, the ABET Main Visit took place in December 2000. The Karlsruhe EE program is the first engineering program outside the US which is evaluated according to the new criteria EC2000. The results are supposed to demonstrate the substantial equivalency with accredited US engineering programs. In Germany, accreditation of engineering programs is only ascending, because ever since University programs and their curricular principles have been harmonized by federal-state laws and regulations. Quality management was simply implied, because of the strong normative regulations. Recently, accreditation and Total Quality Management have become the buzzwords in Germany because of the need for objective criteria in the comparison of German programs with international engineering education. Emphasis will be on social and ethical issues in engineering programs and their implementation in engineering education. Moreover, the adequacy of these criteria with respect to the issues is debated and the need for teaching of knowledge management as a meta-science within engineering is addressed. Technological hermeneutics, i.e. the philosophical fundamentals of technology design is regarded as an essential in engineering education. Finally, the need for a new professional image of the engineer within modern industries in the global environment is discussed. Since ABET EC2000 is designed for American education programs, its applicability to German engineering programs and its impact on curriculum is discussed in detail.","PeriodicalId":394055,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Symposium on Technology and Society","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-07-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126689114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
