Term Paper

Due: December 7th

Format: 8 pages, 12 pt. Times New Roman, 1”margins, double-spaced,

stapled, Works Cited pg, in-text citations (author p#)

Case Study Term Paper

For this assignment, research an engineering ethics case study of your choice and demonstrate an  ability to analyze the the issue from an ethical perspective. Summarize the most important facts  about the case, and explain why particular decisions or actions were immoral.

· Choose at least one real-world case study to investigate. (Multiple case studies related to the same issue may be discussed.)

◦ Choose any case which involved engineers and some type of moral dilemma/controversy.

◦ Be sure to choose a real case, not a fictional “decision scenario”

◦ Try to select a topic not covered in class. 

◦ Do some independent research and use at least three high-quality, in-depth, academic sources

◦ Utilize CSU research databases and online engineering ethics databases in your research.

◦ See the instructor if you have trouble selecting a topic.

· Explain the details of the issues/cases you are discussing.

◦ What decisions were made in this case? Why did the participants do what they did?

◦ Were the relevant decisions/actions moral? Why or why not?

◦ What happened leading up to the failure? What were the focal and auxiliary consequences?

◦ What building and professional codes were in place at the time? Were they followed?

Be specific about the people, places, companies, decisions, events, etc. involved in each case.

· Use relevant concepts from class to support your point of view on the issue.

◦ How do each of the moral theories and principles weigh in? Don’t “force it,” but use moral theory when appropriate to support your view.

◦ From an ethical perspective, what is the ultimate conclusion you have arrived at through your research of the issue?

◦ How did individuals related to the case fail to be professional and/or moral?

Remember:

· Think about what your final conclusion will be – what claim do you want to make? Mention this in your introductory paragraph.

· Use evidence (premises) which demonstrate that your point of view is right. Draw on what you have learned about moral principles and theories.

Control System Project

ECE 415 Control Systems, Fall 2018 Final Project 4-Dec-2015 Due: Saturday, 15-Dec-2018 by 11:55 pm via Isidore

Instructions:

1. You may not use any reference source other than your own class notes, your own homework and the homework solutions I have provided. You may not refer to any other textbook, other course notes, or other published material, including the web.

2. You may not consult another human being. This is your work, and yours alone.

3. There are four questions, out of which you need to choose three. Submit your solutions to three problems only, for a total of 75 points.

4. Work neatly and be precise, concise and to the point. Because this is a formal project, I will not struggle to grade a poorly organized or messy solution, and will automatically assign a grade of zero to any problem I cannot easily read.

5. All the problems are design problems, and they require you to use MATLAB to solve them. Provide all your MATLAB code, uncompressed, via Isidore, as .m or .slx files.

6. Write a report on the results using the following outline (the page limits are strict): • Title page (with your name and the date and an Executive Summary (abstract) which

is a short paragraph description of what the report is about). • Design Problem Descriptions (for the three problems): ≤ 2 pages. • Controller Design Approach: ≤ 3 pages

o Describe your approach to designing the compensators. o Provide the final compensators that you designed (the ones that meet the

specifications). • Verification of Specifications: ≤ 3 pages

o Provide simulations / analysis to verify that you meet the specifications. You may organize these elements problem by problem, or one by one. It is your choice.

7. Make sure your all your final control designs are clearly marked, and in the form

It is essential that you provide clear evidence of having followed a design procedure. Failing to do so will cause you to lose points.

8. Turn in your report in PDF format via Isidore. It should be at most 9 pages long.

9. Only turn in your report if the paragraph below applies to you.

I certify that I have worked on this test exclusively on my own, and that all the work I am turning in is completely my own. I have not given any help, received any help, nor witnessed anyone else giving or receiving help to solve this test. I understand that cheating on this test will automatically result in a failing grade for the test and for the class.

Fishbone Diagram A Problem-Analysis Tool

What is a Fishbone diagram?

Dr. Kaoru Ishikawa, a Japanese quality control statistician, invented the fishbone diagram. Therefore, it may be referred to as the Ishikawa diagram. The fishbone diagram is an analysis tool that provides a systematic way of looking at effects and the causes that create or contribute to those effects. Because of the function of the fishbone diagram, it may be referred to as a cause-and-effect diagram. The design of the diagram looks much like the skeleton of a fish. Therefore, it is often referred to as the fishbone diagram. Whatever name you choose, remember that the value of the fishbone diagram is to assist teams in categorizing the many potential causes of problems or issues in an orderly way and in identifying root causes.

When should a fishbone diagram be used? Does the team…

 Need to study a problem/issue to determine the root cause?  Want to study all the possible reasons why a process is beginning to have difficulties problems, or breakdowns?  Need to identify areas for data collection?  Want to study why a process is not performing properly or producing the desired results?

How is a fishbone diagram constructed? Basic Steps: 1. Draw the fishbone diagram…. 2. List the problem/issue to be studied in the “head of the fish”. 3. Label each “”bone” of the “fish”. The major categories typically utilized are:

 The 4 M’s:

 Methods, Machines, Materials, Manpower  The 4 P’s:

 Place, Procedure, People, Policies  The 4 S’s:

 Surroundings, Suppliers, Systems, Skills Note: You may use one of the four categories suggested, combine them in any fashion or make up your own. The categories are to help you organize your ideas. 4. Use an idea-generating technique (e.g., brainstorming) to identify the factors within each category that may be affecting the problem/issue and/or effect being studied. The team should ask… “What are the

machine issues affecting/causing…” 5. Repeat this procedure with each factor under the category to produce sub-factors. Continue asking,

“Why is this happening?” and put additional segments each factor and subsequently under each sub- factor. 6. Continue until you no longer get useful information as you ask, “Why is that happening?”

7. Analyze the results of the fishbone after team members agree that an adequate amount of detail has

been provided under each major category. Do this by looking for those items that appear in more than one category. These become the ‘most likely causes”.

8. For those items identified as the “most likely causes”, the team should reach consensus on listing those items in priority order with the first item being the most probable” cause.

Civic Engagement Project

PS355 – Winter 2019

Civic Engagement Project

Assignment

The core of this assignment is for you to practice “engaging yourself and engaging your civic community.” Your goal should be multi-layered – to bring change in one social issue that is of concern to you in your community, to develop your knowledge and skills related to civics, and to challenge yourself to reach outside of the classroom to learn and then bring your knowledge back to the classroom to share with your classmates.

You will need to (1) choose and research one substantial social issue at Western Oregon University or in your surrounding community, (2) define a problem found within the issue, and (3) devise and implement a local solution to that problem. If the type of project you choose does not allow for implementation during this quarter, you must submit a detailed proposal of how your project would be implemented with additional time.

You will present your project to the class (a) briefly in Week 4 to gain feedback (January 28th), and (b) the complete project at the end of the quarter (classes during Week 9 and 10 of the quarter, plus on final exam day if needed). In addition, you will need to turn in progress reports and hold brief meetings with me to discuss your efforts. You may work alone or in a group (if you work in a group, you will receive a group score). You will have a great deal of latitude in the project you choose. However, you will work closely with me in planning your actions, and determining what is sufficient progress based on the project and problem you choose.

As you begin work on the project keep the following questions in mind:

· What may prevent progress or help you succeed, and how can you plan for these challenges?

· Who will you need to work with (who are the stakeholders and what are their interests)?

· What will be most effective to change behavior?

Grading

Grades will be determined by the amount and quality of work you complete, not necessarily completing the project, as there is a time limitation of just one quarter. However, the average amount of time that should be spent on the project should be at least 40 hours (4 hours a week) as the assignment is 50% of the class grade. The 40 hours includes the time needed to write the Design, Project Reports, and Project Summary. In addition, you will be assessed on how well your project changes behavior. Therefore, you need to establish criteria for assessing the effectiveness of your project in consultation with me. You should focus on a realistic and pragmatic project design, and reasonable steps to implement your ideas. In addition, you must demonstrate increasing knowledge about the issue and effective measures. Discuss this with me if you have any questions – and we will discuss it in depth when I give approval for your project.

Assignments submitted should be of high quality (typed, double-spaced, 1 inch margins, spell checked and proof read, citations included, etc.)

Assignment Components

The Civic Engagement assignment is worth up to 50% (500 points) of your total class score. The 500 points are divided according to the following steps. In addition, you will present your project to the class (and the community if it fits) worth up to 100 points.

1. Project “Problem” (10 points) – a short (one paragraph, no more than 50 words) definition of the issue area you have picked and the problem you have identified that needs to be addressed.

Due: Monday, January 14th

2. Initial Design / Data Collection and Analysis – (50 points) – a 4-5 page document that

(a) defines the social issue you have chosen,

(b) provides background research on the issue to identify the “problem” (2-3 pages). The background research should include citations in the text and at least 4-5 annotated sources you have researched that discuss the history, stakeholders, policy responses taken, needs, etc., provide statistics and relevant facts as a background to defining the problem.

(c) identifies 3-4 goals you want to achieve, and

(d) discusses an initial policy response you plan implement.

In addition, you need to provide, and

(e) defines data that you plan to gather, an explanation of why you want to gather this data, method(s) for gathering your data, and a preliminary discussion of the techniques you will use to analyze and interpret your data.

Initial Design DUE: at your Project Meeting during Week 3

3. Timeline and Assessment Measures – (15 points) – You need to provide a

(a) project timeline that documents the steps you plan to take and when they will/must be completed (how you plan to spend the 40 required hours),

(b) a list of “effectiveness assessment measures” that define how will you gauge the “success” of your project, and

(c) a list of stakeholder (experts and/or contacts in the community) you will meet with to obtain background information and/or to give recommendations to, as well as a very brief explanation of why you picked these individuals.

The easiest process to follow would be a standard policymaking design (define the problem, set an agenda, design your plan, implement and then monitor compliance/ performance). Timeline / Assessment Measures / Contacts DUE: January 28th
