ABSTRACT
This BOF will provide a platform for the discussion of ethics in Computer Science curricula. This will be a place to discuss challenges and successes over the years, as well as recent efforts to integrate ethics into the curricula. We will discuss some strategies developed in cohorts like the Responsible Computer Science Challenge, where universities and colleges were supported in the conceptualization, development, and piloting of curricula that integrate ethics with undergraduate computer science training, educating a new wave of engineers who bring holistic thinking to the design of technology products.

Ethics Education in Context: A Case Study of Novel Ethics Activities for the CS Classroom
SIGCSE '18: Proceedings of the 49th ACM Technical Symposium on Computer Science EducationOur paper offers several novel activities for teaching ethics in the context of a computer science (CS) class. Rather than approaches that teach ethics as an isolated course, we outline and discuss multiple ethics education interventions meant to work ...
A model academic ethics and integrity policy for computer science departments
SIGCSE '09: Proceedings of the 40th ACM technical symposium on Computer science educationFor decades, US universities and colleges have had policies pertaining to the conduct of their students at the institutional level. These policies are referred to as Academic Integrity Policies or Codes of Conduct. The Code of Ethics, instituted by ...
Computer science curricula for the coming decade
Interest in Computer Science has fluctuated dramatically in the past 20 years. Many factors have been cited for these enrollment dynamics, including changes in the high-tech economy and the general image of computing. In this talk, we begin by examining ...
