This paper presents an experience in developing professional ethics by an approach that integrates knowledge, teaching methodologies and assessment coherently. It has been implemented for students in both the Software Engineering and Computer Engineering degree programs of the Technical University of Madrid, in which professional ethics is studied as a part of a required course. Our contribution of this paper is a model for formative assessment that clarifies the learning goals, enhances the results, simplifies the scoring and can be replicated in other contexts. A quasi-experimental study that involves many of the students of the required course has been developed. To test the effectiveness of the teaching process, the analysis of ethical dilemmas and the use of deontological codes have been integrated, and a scoring rubric has been designed. Currently, this model is also being used to develop skills related to social responsibility and sustainability for undergraduate and postgraduate students of diverse academic context.

“…Future practitioners must understand the responsibility that they will bear, and the possible consequences of failure…To provide this level of awareness, undergraduate programs should devote explicit curricular time to the study of social and professional issues. [33] In 1994, the National Science Foundation funded a 3-year Project on the Integration of Ethics and Social Impact within the Computer Science Curriculum. In 1998 commenced another major review of curriculum guidelines for undergraduate programs in computing, Computing Curricula 2001 (CC2001) [34].…”

This paper reiterates the fact that computer ethics is a job of computer scientist and not philosophers. This paper is divided into three sections. First section provides with a brief explanation and discussion on the weaknesses and shortcomings of classical ethical theories like Divine command theories, Ethical Egoism, Kantianism, Utilitarianism, Social Contract Theory and Virtue Ethics, which makes them unfit for the application of computer ethics. Second section discusses the ambiguity in theories proposed for foundation of computer ethics. Third section deals with professional ethics and discusses that Computer ethics is a domain of computer scientist. This article gives a clear picture of shortcoming of traditional ethical theories and need of new theory to deal with computer ethics. This article points out flaws in theories trying to give foundation for computer ethics. We suggest professional ethics as practical and preventive measure for computer ethics that caters to its requirements. We also explores the role of computer scientist for the application of computer ethics as a profession.

“…The innovation will lead to a more rigorous curriculum for CS majors and a better understanding of fundamental CS topics for the students. Closed laboratories are becoming an increasingly popular approach to teaching introductory computer science [1], per the recommendations by Denning et al [4] and ACM's Computing Curricula 1991 [5]. Closed laboratories have multiple advantages.…”

Abstract-Closed laboratories are becoming an increasingly popular approach to teaching introductory computer science courses. Unlike open laboratories that tend to be an informal environment provided for students to practice their skills with attendance optional, closed laboratories are structured meeting times that support the lecture component of the course, and attendance is required. This paper reports on an integrated approach to designing, implementing, and assessing laboratories with an embedded instructional research design. The activities reported here are parts of a departmentwide effort not only to improve student learning in computer science and computer engineering (CE) but also to improve the agility of the Computer Science and Engineering Department in adapting the curriculum to changing technologies, incorporate research, and validate the instructional strategies used. This paper presents the design and implementation of the laboratories and the results and analysis of student performance. Also described in this paper is cooperative learning in the laboratories and its impact on student learning.
