“…Boiral and Gendron suggest a range of strategies to strengthen the utility of audit and assessment in the corporate realm, such as redefining in the commercial forces that now drive the audit "profession", clarifying auditor ethics and stipulating more stringent requirements for "independence" [46]. We agree with the underlying premise of Boiral and Gendron that clarifying auditor ethics is critical.…”

“…The group then works together to identify alternative practice possibilities, drawing on diverse expertise from within the group. Ideally, participants would enact these possibilities through dialogue or some other physical embodiment, such as role plays, which have been found to be effective in teaching ethics to scientists and engineers [46]. If the reflective process is repeated as part of a regular assessment cycle or initiated outside of the corporate-driven process, habits and shared routines for surfacing dilemmas and "imagining" change start to form, providing a basis for good character formation and an ethical organization.…”

The mining industry provides a rich context through which to engage the practical and ethical limits of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Recent debates in organizational ethics have drawn attention to institutional constraints which inhibit awareness raising and ethical practice within corporate settings. During the last decade, the mining industry has come under increasing pressure to improve its environmental, social and ethical performance. In an effort to respond to these more ethically-orientated external expectations, the mining industry has developed a range of internal regulatory mechanisms and process, which can be applied individually or in conjunction with other companies and organizations. This combination of internal and external drivers indicates a growing imperative for mining companies to ground CSR principles in their day-to-day operating practices. The challenge is to avoid organizational rules and procedures for CSR that lack depth and meaning and which fail to result in the wise and courageous use of personal agency. Instead mining companies must work to establish appropriate mechanisms that will see ethical norms adopted as organizational principles that guide, and result in, improved corporate conduct. Using the Aristotelean notion of "character formation", the authors offer practical considerations for how this might occur in the mining industry.

“…These concepts closely relate to the principles of "active learning" and "collaborative learning" which have been shown to improve educational outcomes over traditional classroom lecture and content (Herkert, 1997;Prince, 2004;Brummel et al, 2010). Civic engagement can serve as a bridge in linking students with real-world contexts for the issues and problems that they are studying.…”

“…Role-playing exercises have been used successfully throughout a variety of engineering ethics endeavors, including but not limited to case studies. [19][20][21] As described by Doorn and Kroesen 19 , role-playing exercises are particularly useful as they "broaden students' perspectives." Further, role-playing discussions allow students to drive the discourse; the leading professorate becomes a facilitator rather than a "preacher."…”

interests include developing pedagogical strategies to improve STEM students' ethical reasoning skills; exploring the role of empathy within design, innovation and sustainability; synthesizing the influence of societal and individual worldviews on decision-making; assessing STEM students' learning in the spaces of design, ethics, and sustainability; and exploring the impact of pre-engineering curriculum on students' abilities and career trajectories. AbstractThe April 20, 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil rig explosion was an engineering and environmental tragedy that led to the loss of 11 human lives and has had far-reaching environmental and economic impacts, the full extent of which is difficult if not impossible to calculate. In 2015 the explosion continues to impact those 11 individual's families; it continues to have a far-reaching emotional impact on the 115 men and women on board at the time of the catastrophe; scientists are still evaluating the environmental impacts of both the oil dispersion throughout the gulf and the oil dispersant used to curtail the spill at surface depths. Simultaneously, gulf business owners, particularly those who rely on gulf waters for their livelihoods, continue to struggle. This novel and far-reaching real-world disaster is particularly salient for use within engineering curricula due to its inherently complex interplay of ethical issues and the broad scope of stakeholders impacted by the initial disaster and its aftermath.We have developed and refined this real-world case study with students participating in a graduate level course at Purdue University over three separate years and five course offerings. We designed this case study within a unique pedagogical framework that leads students to reflectively adopt varying stakeholders' perspectives in order to reason through the case within a team setting. As a final goal, students must decide the appropriateness of continuing deepwater drilling throughout the Gulf of Mexico in light of the human, economic, environmental, and social implications of future potential blowouts. As part of the broader ethics course in which this case is embedded, we selected this case as it provides a uniquely broader scope of stakeholders and a more specific focus on the principles of nonmaleficence and justice when compared to the other cases presented to students. Whereas many engineering ethics case studies focus on human stakeholders and corporations, here the focus also includes marine and aquatic life, challenging a narrowly anthropocentric focus by placing environmental issues as a focal point. In this sense, our focus pushes beyond other case studies in ethics by addressing both macro-ethical issues, where students are encouraged to adopt a broadened societal viewpoint to deduce the most ethical courses of action, and micro-ethical issues, where the focus is towards the professional obligations of an individual engineer, through a scaffolded staged pedagogy.In this paper we present the case structure and pedagogy to argue for the relevance of t...
