Detail Ethics, Technology, and the Future: An Intergenerational Experience in Engineering Education Bibliografi Author: Berne, Rosalyn W. Topik: intergenerational education; intergenerational dialogue; lifelong learning; future studies; ethics; technology studies; pedagogy Bahasa: (EN )     Penerbit: Unika Atma Jaya     Tahun Terbit: 2006     Jenis: Article Fulltext: 88BSTS232.pdf (63.0KB; 4 download) Abstract How do engineering educators adequately and richly introduce to young engineers the perplexing ethical issues associated with the development of new technologies? Robotics, nanotechnology, cloning, cyberintelligence, and genetic engineering, for example, each hold the potential to radically alter the fundamental nature of human life. Senior citizens in our society have a lifetime of experience adopting new technologies into their lives. Through an intergenerational dialogue, undergraduate engineers can come to appreciate and understand what technological change can really mean, both in practical and ethical terms. This article explores the use of intergenerational dialogue as a learning tool, with a focus on the experience of students enrolled in a required engineering ethics course. Reactions and thoughts recounted in this article from both undergraduate engineers and senior citizens signify the immeasurable educational value of intergenerational exploration and its effectiveness in examining the ethical questions connected to the development of new technologies.
