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\nLes supports de l'atelier sont en anglais\, mais votre pa
 rticipation en français est bienvenue.\n\nIf you have any questions\, jus
 t drop us a line cape@epfl.ch\n\n*The 2 other main aspects of being an eth
 ical engineer are managing the ’macro’ societal impacts technological 
 advances (like the way social networks and AI are changing societies) and 
 ‘meso’ or institution-level decisions (like a company’s ethical proc
 urement policies).
