- Abstract:
This document presents an Instructor Module for the student module, "Pirate Code for Engineering Ethics." It makes use of an Instructor Module template that will help structure the authoring and sharing of Ethics Across the Curriculum Integration modules that are being developed through the NSF funded EAC Toolkit Project (SES-0551779). This module provides pedagogical information for instructors regarding a student module based on the experiences and expertise of the authors, co-authors and EAC community members. The goal is to promote sharing of best practices in ethics education and to encourage other educators to engage in EAC.

- Abstract:
This module uses the Pirate Creed of Ethics to introduce students to engineering and professional codes of ethics. Analyzing the Pirate Creed helps students to see that credos and codes serve different functions, embody values, and send different messages to internal and external communities. After studying and discussing the Pirate Creed, students write and defend their own codes in small groups using a seven step method. With their own codes in place as a critical and interpretive framework, they conclude this module by critically assessing different professional codes of ethics, for example, the Puerto Rico State Society of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors.
