摘要

将科学技术研究(STS)中的建构主义方法融入本科生和研究生的工程和政策课程的混合课程需求日益增长。然而,由于体制和学科方面的障碍,许多院校很难实施这样的课程。虽然最近推出了一些将技术培训与 "社会 "或 "伦理问题 "相结合的课程,但这些课程往往缺乏建构主义元素,使得刚刚进入实践领域的从业人员没有能力解读知识与技术的政治性,也无法与持怀疑态度的公众打交道。本文介绍了一种新颖的跨学科课程设计形式,它将 STS 的概念内容与工程和政策培训相结合。采用这种形式的课程最好由在不同领域接受过高级培训的教师进行团队授课,因此,教师和学科之间的共同学习是这种形式的关键要素。我们介绍了几种促进学生和教师合作学习的工具。这种形式还具有多功能性:除了适用于技术和政策培训环境外,还围绕一个概念核心将主题模块化,这样就可以将从生物技术到核安全等各种问题纳入其中,以适应计划需求和资源。

Ethics Inside the Black Box: Integrating Science and Technology Studies into Engineering and Public Policy Curricula.

There is growing need for hybrid curricula that integrate constructivist methods from Science and Technology Studies (STS) into both engineering and policy courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. However, institutional and disciplinary barriers have made implementing such curricula difficult at many institutions. While several programs have recently been launched that mix technical training with consideration of "societal" or "ethical issues," these programs often lack a constructivist element, leaving newly-minted practitioners entering practical fields ill-equipped to unpack the politics of knowledge and technology or engage with skeptical publics. This paper presents a novel format for designing interdisciplinary coursework that combines conceptual content from STS with training in engineering and policy. Courses following this format would ideally be team taught by instructors with advanced training in diverse fields, and hence co-learning between instructors and disciplines is a key element of the format. Several instruments for facilitating both student and instructor collaborative learning are introduced. The format is also designed for versatility: in addition to being adaptable to both technical and policy training environments, topics are modularized around a conceptual core so that issues ranging from biotech to nuclear security can be incorporated to fit programmatic needs and resources.

期刊介绍: Science and Engineering Ethics is an international multidisciplinary journal dedicated to exploring ethical issues associated with science and engineering, covering professional education, research and practice as well as the effects of technological innovations and research findings on society. While the focus of this journal is on science and engineering, contributions from a broad range of disciplines, including social sciences and humanities, are welcomed. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, ethics of new and emerging technologies, research ethics, computer ethics, energy ethics, animals and human subjects ethics, ethics education in science and engineering, ethics in design, biomedical ethics, values in technology and innovation. We welcome contributions that deal with these issues from an international perspective, particularly from countries that are underrepresented in these discussions.
