IO3 description

IO3, the Teacher Training Program, sought to develop a modular program that could be delivered across the EUt and beyond. This program intends to firstly provide educators from a variety of different disciplines a base knowledge in contemporary ethics, ecology, and philosophy of technology. It then provides them with a variety of pedagogical tools suited to the teaching of ecological ethics. Throughout IO3, we worked very closely with Professor Shannon Chance and the SEFI special interest group responsible for the Handbook of Engineering Ethics Education to ensure that this module would be in-line with contemporary technological education methods. The final module is a 5 ECT accredited module than can be delivered in a mixture of embedded and standalone classes. The outcome and assessment of the module then involve the production of further pedagogical tools, that once peer reviewed, contribute to the EthiCo online toolkit.
