The first was held in August of 1998, and the second in August of 1999. The workshops covered subject matter in ethics and computing, as well as methods and approaches for teaching this subject. As part of the workshop, participants developed model exercises that should be useful both in stand-alone courses on ethics and computing, and as ethics-related modules software engineering, networks, databases and other courses. This report gives an overview of the web site of resources resulting from these workshops. Topics related to ethics and computing may be taught in a stand-alone course and/or as modules in other courses. One problem for instructors is to create, or find access to, well-designed teaching materials that use appropriate case studies. This report describes the results of a series of NSFsponsored workshops that focus on creating a repository of such teaching materials. There have been two one-week workshops, each attended by 20 to 25 faculty from a wide variety of institutions. Each participant developed at least one model teaching/learning activity. The
