论文摘要
将伦理模块嵌入计算机科学课程中已成为人们对CS计划的越来越多的认识的普遍回应，即CS计划需要更好地设备其学生来浏览计算技术的道德维度，例如AI，机器学习和大数据分析。但是，这种方法的受欢迎程度超过了其积极成果的证据。为了帮助缩小这一差距，这项实证研究报告了东北计划的积极结果，该计划将值分析模块嵌入CS课程中。由此产生的数据表明，此类模块对学生的道德态度产生积极影响，并且学生离开模块，认为他们更准备在最终职业中可能面临的道德方面。重要的是，这些收益是在没有哲学博士学位课程的机构中实现的，这表明该策略可以由许多人比许多人想象的要有效地采用。
Embedding ethics modules within computer science courses has become a popular response to the growing recognition that CS programs need to better equip their students to navigate the ethical dimensions of computing technologies like AI, machine learning, and big data analytics. However, the popularity of this approach has outpaced the evidence of its positive outcomes. To help close that gap, this empirical study reports positive results from Northeastern's program that embeds values analysis modules into CS courses. The resulting data suggest that such modules have a positive effect on students' moral attitudes and that students leave the modules believing they are more prepared to navigate the ethical dimensions they will likely face in their eventual careers. Importantly, these gains were accomplished at an institution without a philosophy doctoral program, suggesting this strategy can be effectively employed by a wider range of institutions than many have thought.
