DESCRIPTION:Siara Isaac\nThis workshop deals with ‘micro’ ethics – t
 he actions of individual engineers in their relations and interactions wit
 h other people*. There is good evidence that diverse teams can be more pro
 ductive and effective than homogeneous teams\, but diverse teams generate 
 more issues around ethical interaction. This workshop will provide you wit
 h tools to be more aware of when/how issues arise and strategies to work m
 ore productively and fairly in heterogeneous teams. These tools will be im
 mediately applicable in your current project\, and also form a solid basis
  of intercultural communication for working in international or multinatio
 nal contexts. 90% of MAKE students who participated in spring 2020 reporte
 d learning new strategies to work together in non‐discriminatory ways.\n
 \nThis interactive workshop is mandatory for students in interdisciplinary
  projects funded by the MAKE committee (Racing Team\, Robocontest\, Solar 
 Boat\, GrowBotHub\, Rocket Team\, etc). But anyone who would like to atten
 d is welcome!\n\nIf you can't participate\, please note that this workshop
  will also take place on\n- Oct. 08th\, 2020\, 13:15-16:00 in room GC A3 3

  questions\, just drop us a line cape@epfl.ch\n\n*The 2 other main aspects
  of being an ethical engineer are managing the ’macro’ societal impact
 s technological advances (like the way social networks and AI are changing
  societies) and ‘meso’ or institution-level decisions (like a company
 ’s ethical procurement policies).
