Research Abstract |
This study conducted a series of essay writings in a class of engineering ethics for undergraduate students. A typical case in which engineers must face ethical dilemma was presented in every class and each student wrote his/her opinion and reasoning choosing one of yes/no answers like a debate. Through qualitative analysis of these writing texts, the study found important patterns of their social attitude change and proposed a theoretical model.
