This study attempts to fill this gap by examining the relationship between the Big Five personality traits and the inclination …Read more

8Combating STEM Moral Disengagement in advanceTeaching Ethics. forthcoming.Arguably, STEM undergraduate education has narrowed student engagement with the social, ethical, and global. Our paper argues that disengagement is caused by a failure of moral imagination. We propose socio-technical analysis as the cornerstone to a more inclusive approach to STEM education. It promotes four activities: (1) zooming in on technologies by describing their structure, function, and embedded values; (2) zooming out to the surrounding socio-technical system which constrains and enable…Read more

Formal Log. 13:497–500, 1972) develops a comparison between propositional and syllogistic logic.
