Technological Stewardship: Assessing a Value-Sensitive Approach to "Engineering For Good"

This work-in-progress paper motivates and introduces a study of technological stewardship in Canadian engineering education. Technological stewardship is a concept advanced within the Canadian engineering community since 2017 by the Engineering Change Lab (ECL), and which is now the basis of the ECL’s Tech Stewardship Practice program (TSPP). We propose viewing technological stewardship as a form of "engineering for good," i.e. as an approach to engineering that emphasizes doing good as a primary goal and outcome. Additional research is required to situate technological stewardship and the TSPP within the realm of engineering for good, to define and describe the approach to doing good that the program advances, and to understand how participants in the TSPP appreciate and implement technological stewardship in their lives and careers.
