Resumo

Public engineering scandals like the VW Diesel Cheat, Theranos's biotech vaporware, and the Boeing 737-MAX call us to reflect on how engineers, management, and the public prioritize, realize, override, or discard particular values in the design and deployment of technology purported to benefit people and the planet. As we look towards a future marked by increasingly wicked problems and sociotechnical messes, can we shift engineering ethics pedagogies to place greater value on learning and growth? What role can engineers and non-engineers play in creating cultures of accountability and fidelity to core public and professional values?
