      Definition of a lens

      Lenses

      A lens is a custom view of Connexions content. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see Connexions through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

      What is in a lens?

      Lens makers point to Connexions materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

      Who can create a lens?

      Any individual Connexions member, a community, or a respected organization.

Collection Properties

Summary: This is a preliminary version of a course in Engineering Ethics based that pulls together Connexions modules that were used as part of an Engineering Ethics course taught by William Frey in fall 2006. An Engineering Ethics Bowl competition formed the capstone experience of this course. Frey, Cruz, and Sanchez have reported in detail on the Engineering Ethics Bowl in "The Ethics Bowl in Engineering Ethics at the University of Puerto Rico-Mayaguez," in Teaching Ethics, Volume 4, number 2, Spring 2004: 15-31. The major change in this activity reported in this course is the use of peer review teams to score the competition. This course in Engineering Ethics is being developed as a part of an NSF-funded project, "Collaborative Development of Ethics Across the Curriculum Resources and Sharing of Best Practices," SES 0551779.
